Re: LF: Razor blade RX

Mal,

Bearing in mind that I was born in 1943 and did the RAE when it required FULL WRITTEN answers AND hand drawn circuits with worked calculations I consider your remark suggesting an ability only to be able to cope with multiple choice exam papers to be an impertinence.

It is probable that others may feel equally ill-disposed and consider your remarks to be the inflammatory cause of some of the trading of insults.

Seems my wish for a more adult and mannered 2009 did not last long!

Stewart 
This is a simple exercise and NO ONE knows how to do it, plenty of comments and deviations. 
An analogy 
 
1. Some HI TECH RAF pilots asked to fly a WW2 SPITFIRE and found it difficult and performed badly, needed training and tuition. 
 
2. Hi Performance students A + in their subjects could not pass a 1960 GCE paper in maths and english. 
 
These were recent UK TV productions. 
 
RF engineers and improvisers are scarce it would appear both old and new. Digital and DC are abundant. 
 
Take away the Internet source, Maplins and Farnell and the electronics world would collapse.
