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 />

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 />

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 />

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