This is wonderful. Where can I get the kit to assemble mine?

Good job.

Great work I am looking forward to the smoke test so to speak 🤣

I actually did a number of his sets from scratch. Had most parts in stock, but acquired wood pieces from Lowes and my shed. Check out my vids.

Hi Ron, This is a reproduction of a kit that was sold by Mike Peebles of www.peeblesoriginals.com/. Unfortunately, Mike passed away last January. Someone made a clone of the kit and sent me the parts. It would work in an apartment, but you need a longwire antenna. My antenna is about 50' long, goes out the window and is ties off to a tree.

I've heard where people have run antenna wires discreetly around apartments. I like 50-100' of wire. You can buy twin conductor speaker wire quite cheaply. I like wire larger than 20 gauge. Night-time reception is best. Perhaps some insulated wire (Covered wire) run out to a tree at night and retrieved before the busybodies get up. I've even used a 50-foot extension cord. Hook antenna lead to both electric prongs. With an outside deck, you could wind 50-100 feet of wire around the legs. People wouldn't know it was an antenna. How about wire wrapped round and round a cardboard or non-metallic container. 2 feet square or larger. How about weaving antenna wire along a string of Christmas lights?

What relevance is that you are a disabled vet ?
