EV>TW>I was an Interior Comunications Electricial and did the same thing on
EV>TW>a Submarine because of my Interenst in "Electronics".
Which by the way
EV>TW>when I was in high School was called "Radio Electricity"

EV>Tom,

EV>In 1956 my High School had a Electronics class that I took before I
EV>could take the Radio I or II class.

EV>In Electronics, I learned Ohms Law and calculated the Voltage and
EV>Current in different circuits that we wired from schematics using the
EV>Large Wire Wound Resistors the teacher provided, and after doing the
EV>calculations we connected a 12 VDC storage battery to our circuit to see
EV>how close the VOM readings were to what we figured out on paper.

The Class I took in my Junior Year of High School(1947-48) was called
"Day Trade Radio". It was three hours per day where I learend all that
stuff plus more. Some in the class got their Ham Licences but the Code
baffled me so i had to be satisfied with the Theory needed only.
During the summer between my Junior and Senior i did get a job working
in a radio Repair Shop though.
