Yup.
A bit of a faux paw, but he is a newb/infrequent poster so may as well let it slide.

That's news to me that we're not suppose to reply to an old thread. So is there an actual cutoff date that makes it an offense? I for one was enjoying the read because I wasn't around here back when it started.

Tom B. did absolutely nothing wrong. In fact he did what he should have. He supplied new information to an old thread rather than starting a second thread on the same subject.
Thanks, Tom B.! . |

And besides faux paw is an animated cat, so probably he meant faux pas

Art Margolis is the de-facto Guru of our group and needs periodic re-introduction
His 1958 magazine art-icle "antenna antics" made me laugh and shudder at the same time, having been on many a roof on mid-winter service calls in the 80s, replacing those damned CM and Winegard cartridge-mounted circuit board amps.

One of Art's books, "Professional TV Secrets" helped me get started 50 years ago. The library at my junior high school had the Fawcett Homeowners book series, which included a reprint of the book in one of the volumes. Eventually, I did come up with a copy of the book. Another of my favorite authors was Jack Darr, who had a long running column in Radio-Electronics. I understand that he also has passed on.
