Thought I'd share what helped me get rolling this morning.
Good toe-tappin' classics:
A heart-warming human interest story about the struggles of young love and life's crazy turns:
"he was goin' in the Navy but couldn't pass the test..."
And if serious drama about Sonny doin' time is not your thing; tap your toe to someone bangin' on a "jap guitar":
"everybody says you can't get far with thirty-seven dollars and a.."
Sometimes good, cheap juke music helps me ease into a Friday.B-)
:good:
Try this on for size :music: :stakeout: :music:

Hey Roadie, cool song. I went as an evil clown one year, maybe I'll try the pity party clown theme some day. This year I was Charlie Brown, and Snoopy was dressed up as a vampire. Kinda fun
Oh yea, while your lighting a fire under your Stars skates - throw a couple logs in for my Wings, will ya.
Speaking of tubes, looky what I picked up a couple of weeks ago.
I had heard this before
but I couldn't figure out where. I did a youtube search and found the Highwaymen had recorded it also. I guess it's because I heard it there first but I prefer Waylon, Willie, Johnny and Kris.

Old Soviet volt meter ????? :-S
That is a HH Scott 330 tube tuner. HH Scott made quite a few of these throughout the late '50's-early '60's. They made B, C, D and R models. This one is a very early '55 or '56 plain 330 model. It has a low serial number, #1441, and the very early red indicators. These were built to accept simulcast signals or as HH Scott calls it, Binaural. It has separate AM and FM tuning capacitors . Back in the day, before the MPX stereo signal that you know of was in use, simulcast worked by tuning in an FM station, and then tuning in the matching AM station and it simulated "stereo." Not really stereo but they were experimenting. It will also play in mono and stereo mode with the help of a MPX adapter that plugs into the MPX output. The FCC approved of the MPX Stereo format around 1962-ish and that was the end of simulcast.
