scroll down check out the tear down of a metal 6J5. Almost like Fabergé jewelry, damn impressive industrial mass production in 1937. No computes, lasers, CNC, CAD... Amazes me, anyway.

Cutting out a man's tongue does not mean he’s a liar, but it does show that you fear the truth he might speak about you!

In 1937 GE, and everyone else for that matter, would have told you to turn it down!trobbins wrote:Now if only they had found a way to add a small dob of electron-transparent dampening goo to each of those wires sections that are unsupported, then we wouldn't have so much of a problem with microphonics !
