ORAC, The home brew transparent TV set.

Absolutely beautiful and ingenious piece of work, Hugo.
And no surprise that it pleased the Dean of your med school back in the day! Thanks for sharing that. I can see the meticulous nature of your work and the clear correspondences with medicine and surgery.,

Lovely, do you turn it on with a contact key like in Blakes 7?

Wonderful compact and futuristic piece of equipment Argus! That would be me remarking on Form and Function re the Plastic Ono Band on Oct 6th. "Audio phoolery-cable breakdown-I never knew that!"
