Crystal Sets to Computers - A Personal Trip Along the Road of Technology

By Bob Day

Los Angeles Computer Society JANUARY General Meeting
7 P. M. Tuesday, March 11, 2003,
Fellowship Hall, 8065 Emerson Ave. Los Angeles 90045

Many of us, in our earlier days, either played around with (or knew someone who did) those marvelous "crystal set" radios. Bob Day is like us who experimented and went on to tinker with more exotic electronics and computers.

Bob's reminiscences and personal experiences, will probably parallel our own and remind us of early experiences ("learning" and otherwise). His presentation includes pictures and has been very favorably commented by other user groups he has visited.

He draws on his experiences developing and working on military and industrial electronics such as IFF systems, geophysical electronics for oil exploration, guided missiles and integration of shipboard
electronics and weapons systems.

And then he got a Commodore C64 and became addicted to computers. We'll let Bob tell the rest. . . . . . . . . .

Open to the public. - - - - - - - Come and learn with us.

NOTE: The usual "computer forums" for beginners and advanced users start at 6 PM.
