Is anyone else out there familiar with something called a Philco
demonstrator besides me?
The Philco Demonstrator was a industrial Philco radio made into a large
breadboard for electronics instruction in High Schools and other educational purposes circa mid 1950's. I have a partial picture with
students troubleshooting one at Salem Vocational High School in
Salem, Mass my Electronics class in 1965. I just have to figure out how to load it to this site, can I do it through Flicker?
