I open Chapter 3 of my book "SolderSmoke -- Global Adventures in Wireless Electronics" with some quotes from Cliff Stoll: "Where's the joy of mechanics and electricity, the creation of real things? Who are the tinkerers with a lust for electronics?" Well Cliff, that would be us! I'm glad to see in the (obviously) recent video that OM Still has not lost his passion for electronics. You guys will like this one. Keep 'em comin' Cliff!
"SolderSmoke -- Global Adventures in Wireless Electronics" is now available as an e-book for Amazon's Kindle.
