Hey Bill, where are you located? I'm about 20KM north of Vernon on the way to Falkland. The White Rock lake fire came within 3km of our place, scary summer for sure. This picture was taken from my deck the day they lit the "controlled burn".It's raining here for the first time in months. This is also my first post in many months.
Last summer's heat and forest fires in the interior of British Columbia reoriented my priorities and I took a break from audio experimentation. Luckily, I was not directly affected by the fires, but it motivated me to do a lot of work outside to reduce the fire risk.
However, now winter is coming and I am eager to continue my experiments and participate in diyAudio.

Cool. I rode my motorbike out to Adventure Bay almost daily to monitor the fires spread up North, amazing how fast it moved.
Well if you're interested in getting together sometime let me know. A visit to HiFi attic or Spinners? My work schedule is winding down for the season. Maybe I have some goodies to trade for a few VFETs. 😉
cheers

This is what happens when you get bored testing FETs and need an artistic release. Nelson has given us so much over the years and I was reading the thread about interest in the Iron Pumpkin kit and someone said there is no Santa Claus....well that got me to thinking, yes Virginia, there is a Santa Claus.
We love you Papa!
Early Merry Christmas everyone.
Cheers
Now where is that wish list...SITs, Toshiba JFETs, SemiSouths...

Ha!
it seems Andrew Jones ( great presentation and hang-out, in general, at 2021 BAF) made another Jewel
on several places on ootoobe and around, but this one is having him speaking most interesting:

Yeah, I stumbled across that the day it posted. I'm already trying to think of a way to incorporate a similar front baffle! 🤔
Hello out there,...
you are dreamin' of Santa Claus bringing you nice active devices...
or a new speaker - point source...
I've got my present from Santa! Yes, yes, I've bought it myself 😵
Something to read. Going back to the absolute basics and some more.
Cheers

yeah, it's good to read classics
whenever I invent something, I find it later already invented
for instance - page 134, figure 3.27.B

Hello ZenMod,
the cascoded current sink? 🤔
Cascode to the rescue?
That is not complicated enough for you... and only two jFets and a resistor. 😉
I have something to think about...

I invented hybrid follower - tube+mosfet
but I knew that blessed inventor is just having good memory
then spent substantially more energy to find where I did saw it, comparing to energy invested in invention
well, yeah

I also tried to make the wheel a little bit rounder... but I failed!

I am earthed!

As you know, I'm a big fan of Tektronix oscilloscopes.
