[QUOTE="2cvbloke, post: 1076207, member: 199791"] Nah, my hobbies changed over the years, I like things where I can see the effects of immediately, rather than waiting for scans of transponders for digital stuff that may not even be visible owing to encryption, stuff like tuning carbs on small engines, repairing rotary dials on old telephones, or just faffing about with soldering LEDs to things and making them glow... :lol: It's why I liked analogue stuff, it was fun to experiment with, like when I managed to get "a" signal on my BSB Squarial (wish I still had that!) when sat on the mount for my Attisat FL500 squarial (also wish I still had that!!!), given that the BSB kit was made for circular polarised signals rather than linear, it was fun to capture it in the way I did... :) With digital, no such things, not enough signal = no channels = no fun, it's either On or Off, nothing in between... :( [/QUOTE]
