A VERY Interesting Old "Steam Punk" Homebrew Thermatron Rig -- Can You Suggest A Home for this Rig? (Video)


Oh man.  They got be at the breadboard, but there was so much more:  

-- A mercury switch
--  A homebrew variometer
-- A reading lamp
-- A specially made (and stored!) tuning tool and a mechanical pencil 
--  A CQ paper tape and tape reader! 
-- A front panel clock
-- Space for QSL cards on the front panel   

This is a really cool homebrew radio!  Can someone find a good home for this amazing device?  The video was posted only 1 month ago.

  1. This is probably the best example of true ham radio homebrew gear Ive ever seen. Everything is scrounged from junk boxes or repurposed stuff. A masterpiece. Should be a "reference" piece for all homebrewers. I wish Bruce Vaughn or Bob Dennison were alive to see it!
