OK Brian, thanks again. I am not home with the scope at the moment, but will try what you mentioned as soon as possible. That story about Jim Williams is quite refreshing. Sometimes I feel as if my 'analog' ways will leave me behind in the electronics world, or more specifically; on the job.
I guess it's really a matter of what facet of electronics you are involved with and/or interested in. I find low voltage semiconductor, microchip stuff to be a bore personally, but I must accept and understand it to a certain degree to be any kind of a tech these days. I really wish that I lived near one of the music amplifier companies that still produce vacuum tube equipment, or even some service center for that matter. It just doesn't exist anywhere near my home here in VA. It would be great though even to be involved in the production of that equipment.
There should still be some home audio companies producing tube amplifiers. I know that big component stereo equipment like so many things is suffering a decline in interest due I guess to the Ipods and smart?phones.
