30 Nostalgic Radio Experiments
Quite possibly the most beautiful Science Kit ever manufactured.
Use a real vacuum tube and other easy-to-assemble parts to build
a functioning radio, encased in a wonderully finished genuine wooden box.
From Thames & Kosmos:
"Build a nostalgic radio with a real vacuum tube
and explore the airwaves as they did in the 1930s!
Historic technology comes to life again with 30 engaging
experiments. Assembling this radio is a fun project for
radiomen, tinkers and gadget-buffs of all ages.
Once your radio is up and running, hunting for radio
transmissions becomes a fun challenge. While learning
how the radio works, you will discover the fundamental parts
of electrical circuits.
The radio is pre-wired for easy assembly. Users need only to
plug in the various components, attach an antenna and a ground wire,
and make tuning adjustments to get the radio working. The wooden
base is beautifully finished with a polished cherry stain and golden
labels for an authentic look. The vacuum tube glows with a soft
orange glow when you are using it!
Instructions, experiments and additional configurations for the radio are
described in the 32-page full-color experiment manual. A double triode
allows for experiments with different circuits. Just switch the coils to tap
into different wave bands: one coil for AM frequencies and one for shortwave.
Transport yourself back to the early days of radio, and become a real Radio Ace!"
