Ok the latest tangent for a future display are:

Home Broadcasters, Phone Oscillators and Babysitters!

looking  for the actual items of course, but to go along with that,
advertisements, and  some first hand oral history  about your early
experiences and  fun and  trouble you got into etc etc  regarding these
devices!

It would be interesting to now how many folks that  enjoyed these went into
some form of broadcasting.....

Three that I remember myself were the

 knight kit little  blue unit with the 50c5's in it ( had loads of fun with
one of these! This baby would be fun to play with again!)

the RCA Unit ( I almost remember this having a pentode or a pentagrid  tube
in it.....

Lafayette unit... Did not have one but always looked in the catalog at it.

Was  there also a heathkit unit?  I seem to think so but a catalog check
will  fill in the details of it's existence.


a close brother to the home broadcaster  was the 'baby sitter' and knew
people when I was young that kludged extra inputs and preamps onto
these.....

Yep want examples of all of them! cash, trade, free... whatever!

But most of all want some history of  peoples involvement with them to add
to the section on the web site.

please respond offlist...
