It’s a Joe Friday “Friday” – started on June 3rd 1949 – Dragnet Part #1 of 3

The radio shows started – then the black and white TV shows in 1951 – and then Dragnet 1967 – take a guess when that series started – LOL . . .

Binge out to the radio shows – and then there is a whole lot more of Joe Friday “Friday” on the way – Enjoy!

Have Fun! – Run the Gun! – and remember – The facts – just the facts are that Fish Heads are Cheap!!

A different Friday and two packages today . . .

No Friday music – might throw an album up but June 3rd 1949 being such an important day in broadcast history – you will either love the 3 posts or you won’t – but I am going to recognize June 3rd 1949 for the important day it was . . .

Got two packages today – one from BUDK.COM and one from SMKW.COM . . .

A NOT inaccurate depiction of me grabbing the boxes off the porch – LMAO!

I’m so far behind on most everything I’m gonna have to speed up to stop – however there is a light at the end of the tunnel and it just might NOT be a train – I won’t see a “final” schedule until I crawl back into the “People’s Glorious Tractor Factory” on Sunday but the word is I get a normal schedule for possibly two months – maybe – hopefully . . .

Gotta go and get the 3 posts ready for Friday – one to drop just after midnight then 0500 then app. 1200 UTC – UTC?? Bruce – What in the wide wide world of sports is UTC??? – go check it out – cool stuff . . .

And I have a small package coming from DXENGINEERING.COM – Oh Boy!!

Have Fun! – Run the Gun! – and remember – Fish Heads are Cheap!!

Eton Elite 750

I had quite a time finding a good straight forward review on “The Tube” – the guy gives you a good look at the radio – no smoke and mirrors and bullshit – just a decent look at it – after picking one up – the only question I’m asking me is why did I wait so long? . . .

More “stuff” on the way for YOU!

A couple of Cold Steel fixed blades to give you a look at – and something different . . .

And YOUR homework assignment in the meantime? What is SK-5 Steel? – this will get you started – A quick reference is to think of it as in the neighborhood of the steel KA-BAR uses in the combat knives – same church different pew . . .

For the next thing – the look at it will take awhile as I want to get it above the roof line so it’s not at a disadvantage to start with -the MLA-30 receiving antenna – for a pretty good review you can go here . . .

Right at this moment the MLA-30 is stuck out the window on a 10 foot pole and it’s more or less “blind” to the west ( metal siding ) so it’s not a fair comparison to the long wire antenna – the Eton makes it easy to switch between the two antennas as the loop is connected to a BNC connector for external antennas and with a click of a switch it is receiving through the internal whip antenna – just clipped the long wire to the whip – simple and easy . . .

Hopefully have a dribble of “stuff” this week – then the over time is “supposed” to end for 30 days . . . Yeah I know – when pigs fly . . .
