Excerpt from The Radio Detectives
Being of a naturally inventive and mechanical mind and remembering his father's advice to try to improve matters, he spent all his spare time studying the radio magazines, haunting the stores where radio supplies and instruments were sold and arguing about and discussing various devices and sets with his boy friends. Hardly a day passed that he did not arrive at his home carrying some mysterious package or bundle. Aecom panied by his chum Frank, from the time school was over until late in the evening he kept himself secluded in his den while faint sounds of hammer ing or of animated conversation might have been heard within.
