Huh... interesting (and semi-related) story: Upstairs I have my dad's first solid-state radio (an old Concert Boy). He told me earlier that it had broken a long time ago, and he had fixed it. First thing he heard when he turned it back on was the news of JFK's assasination.

Though that is a pretty significant event, so most people probably remember what they were doing at the time; your comment just brought that to mind.

As for your earlier radio project, I do have some documentation and I
would be happy to discuss with you if it can help. Best regards.
By all means... I'm always interested in an enlightening discussion! That set's been running beautifully since I fixed it up; Sounds great too.
