Fun with Radio
Appearance
Fun with Radiois a book by Gilbert Davey first published in 1957 by Edmund Ward Ltd (London). At a time when radio receivers were still very expensive, and portable radios still a rarity (transistors were just being introduced) the book introduced many younsters, mainly boys, to radio construction, and in some cases a career in Radio or Electronics. Radio construction was, for a while, the number one hobby among boys.
Gilbert Davey had a caree as an insurance official, and was an amateur in the field of Radio, but his enthusiasm and straightforward writing with diagrams inspired many youngsters.
