Not to take away from what could be here, but there are communications receiver and test equipment forums over on Antique Radio Forums.

Good point. How about a forum for test equipment specifically as used for servicing TVs, VCRs, cameras etc. ?

How about a dollars and sense forum like Audiokarma. Our hobby is going through a strange period right now if anybody watches ebay. Most of you do, but there ought to be somewhere to bitch about the Chinese crap put into a nice old cabinets. Bitch about the "movie prop sets". (This is being encouraged by ebay bigtime). The craziness of asking thousands for a common Philco, Zenith or RCA mid 50's set. The incremental but real price increases in items that are really in demand. Whats next to hit the big time? Predictas at $1200? etc. etc. etc.

The box still says "Search AK with Google" and the radio buttons say "Audiokarma.org" and "Google."

How about resettting this counter to reflect the real size (and eventual growth)
of videokarma?

Most users ever online was 1,140
