Your RADIO PROPAGANDA<br />

HANDBOOK (May '63 EI) was darned<br />

well done but I think you went off the<br />

track about Marlene Dietrich's vocals<br />

and the war effort. I thought it was her<br />

legs that inspired our boys. How about<br />

showing them<br />

Correction<br />

I liked your CB MARKETPLACE<br />

directory (March '63 EI) , especially the<br />

price you gave on Lafayette's TM -58<br />

SWR bridge and RF power meter -<br />

$7.95. Shouldn't that have been $27.95<br />

You are right, Harold. We goofed.<br />

Hooked<br />

Man, what a lot of trouble one magazine<br />

can cause. You aroused my interest<br />

with HOW TO WIN A DX AWARD in<br />

the Jan. '62 issue and then it all started.<br />

I tore out and purchased a short -wave<br />

set. I needed a tape recorder and a set<br />

of foreign dictionaries to make out the<br />

DX broadcasts. Two dozen technical<br />

books and a typewriter were musts. Antennas<br />

started springing up all over the<br />

place and I soon learned that if you want<br />

good DX you don't sleep- hence, the<br />

bags under my eyes. The post office is<br />

making money on me for the first time<br />

in years and I believe my wife is about<br />

ready to pack up and leave. Time to<br />

quit I'm having a ball!<br />

Pro & Con<br />

Please accept a CBer's thanks and<br />

praise for the special Citizens Band<br />

issue (March '63 EI) . The theory articles<br />

cleared up quite a few questions<br />

and the projects were great.<br />

George Dresser<br />

Peekskill, N. Y.<br />

My regrets to your staff on that all -CB<br />

issue. Maybe it's the ham in me, but I<br />

think you wasted a heck of a lot of paper.<br />

Chuck Marty<br />

Troy, Ohio<br />

Mr. Dresser, meet Mr. Marty.<br />

I noticed your new column, EI AT<br />

LARGE, in the May issue, the one about<br />

women in electronics being given equal<br />

treatment. It was heart -warming to me.<br />

Cheers for that distaff- minded company.<br />

I confess (but only to you) to being a<br />

secret reader of EI and an electronic enthusiast.<br />

But I'm afraid my girl friends<br />

wouldn't understand.<br />

Joan A.<br />

Pittsburgh, Pa.<br />

Get smart, Joanie. Try it on the boys.<br />
