Well, that's an out and out lie! You can't solder!

Case in point: your French is even worth. From Kirk
See Kirk, you may have wanted to say it was worse!
Mike, don't blame it on the key pad, you can see what is typed on the screen.
I do believe your friends but doubt Kirk can figure out how to put the B+ to ground yet, but he is learning. I guess Mike he has to learn to solder first?
Best to both and enjoy your posts.

Well, if we keep bartering, so he does not even have to know what B+ is, he is safe to deal with.
Or, maybe he cannot tell the difference between + and -, and so keeps putting B- to the chassis, and this is safe.

But even if he ever learns it, I am still safe, as I always plug his radios through my isolation transformer Icon_lol

So, Kirk, you will have to come up with something really devious. Like a live mouse darting out of a chassis...or your photograph with a big grin and "gotcha!" print.
