- The Museum of Radio and Technology is located in Huntington, West Virginia and houses an amazing collection of radios, TV's, broadcast gear and computers. I've visited twice and the docents have gone above and beyond to demonstrate and educate each time.

God! Been following you since you made FETs in your oven, I was only a high schooler at the time. Now I'm graduate student in EE and you were my inspiration to go into this field, along with Dave and Mike.
Love your content! please make more videos!
Wow. I'm honored. Hope to work with you someday.
Great find and wonderful to see Jeri posting again!
Soooooo glad to see you in my feed again!!
Glad to be back!
Some old B&W TVs in the 70's had live metal fold down chassis, (240 VAC here) I remember hanging out at the tv repair shop, and the old fella there servicing the rear of these valve tvs (with a big long mirror hanging on the wall so he could see the front of the screen while tweaking in the back) told me what not to touch while I was helping (I was only 10) and would save all the big old resistors, and waxy caps he'd clip out and replace (even though they were probably duds, they were "treasure" to me). :)
Always loved those old radio's.
I am an old Man...with a young mind.. I was made aware of you and your work thru a short encounter at .. I don't know.. Atlanta??.. Not sure.. but we talked of back engineering and you blew my mind... after that.. u went off radar.. made me worry like you were my own kid (yes, I am that old).. I just found it unusual to find another human that took stuff apart to find it's origins ... When you fell off the map.. what 2 years..? I was typing search several times a year //I am just happy to know you are alive and well.. you are brilliant.. That's what many want, but only a few can buy... you are a creator. !! Innovative human.. unmatched, and I was so glad to find a 2 mo. vid with you at the radio museum !!
Felt like home.. I was a Mil-Hamm kid. .key a Mic>>> i peed red white and blue.. ha
Thanks for that tour thru my own childhood.. !
KB4CBT..jr. out.
You're Baaack. Really missed you. You are an inspiration to so many.
Jeri, great to see you posting again. I will be watching these new videos with my daughter!
Thanks for all you do!
Thanks so much for posting again. Please let us know what you've been up to lately. Your past projects were so interesting.
just subscribed a week ago...glad to see you posting again!!!
Hallicrafter, Hammarlund, Motorola, and I do believe I saw some Johnson equipment too. Some of the true giants of the boat anchor era of radio! Thanks for sharing the experience! =)
Jeri! I'm just another stranger that missed you a lot.
Interesting, I just bought a 1950 Marconi Radio on Friday. NICE TO HAVE YOU BACK ON TH-cam!
Nice to see you again! One of the morse code keys that I have is the same as the one on the spark gap transmitter - made my Signal Electric. Having chassis ground wasn't the problem - it was the ones that the chassis could be "hot" that were more dangerous. Another dangerous series of sets used a special resistive line cord to provide a voltage drop for the ballast string so that the radio didn't need a transformer. These radios were later given the infamous name "curtain burners" for obvious reasons.
What a great video and a lovely gentleman, thank you for posting such a wonderful production.
Welcome back thank you for bringing us along. You and the guide realy brought the old teck to life with your knowledge and enthusiasm. Looking forward to the next episode.
Soooooo glad to see you in my feed again!!♥♥♥♥!
I am very glad to see you back Jeri!
I've missed you!....I'm so glad to see you post something new!, Thank you!
I grew up not far from there, And I travel through there regularly.
I did not know this was there, I will check this out for sure. THANK YOU !
I subscribed to this channel literally right after the magnetic logic video (last video) was posted. Now, four years later, I'm glad I subscribed! Thank you for posting again Ms Ellsworth!
Can't wait for more in this series! The museum looks so amazing!
That is *super* cool. Thanks for bringing us along!
Really interesting video. It was a long wait... Good to see you back.Thanks, Jeri.
Great to see you back. Missed your videos. Love seeing old tech.
Cheers to you for covering this great museum. Over the years, I've been grateful to live close by. VY 73 DE KA8SYV
I have passed by this museum a 1000 times when going home to visit family. I will stop by the next time.
I literally got married and 2 kids since you last posted but it is so great to see you posting again ! Thanks for taking the time to document your radio experiments !
We need you! The best ever.
Great to have you back Jeri! Now get in that lab, start tinkering and filming! Thanks for all you do!
This is where we're going next in 2018! My wife and I already visited the Vintage Communications Museum in Connecticut and the Wireless Museum in Bloomfield NY this year. Amazing.
Welcome back! It's been years!
Yay! You're back, Jeri!! I'm going to enjoy these. Woo hoo!
This is crazy. Was just going thru my subs and jettisoning those that haven't been active in years. Came across yours, hadn't been active for years so thought I'd check to be sure, ...aaaand *you uploaded today!* Whoa, what's the odds of that happening!!??
Fascinating stuff. Thanks for shooting this.
This is awesome. You're awesome. Welcome back to TH-cam; we love you Jeri.

I was just re-watching Jeri's old A-Z of Electronics series for Adafruit and checked the channel. Surprise! New videos!
What an awesome museum. I'll have to try to get there next time I visit friends in WV.
Can't thank you enough for this group of videos! Best Wishes!
Very enjoyable. My father worked in radio starting from the early days.
WOW! This place looks AMAZING!
Love that stuff. Have collection of vintage stereos.
Yippie! Jeri is back! This museum could be more than a reason to come over and visit the USA once again. 'like to see the computer playground...
Wow, wonderful to see you're back! Time to binge watch the new material :)
So cool - can't wait to see more!
Wonderful. Just wonderful. Love this!
Hi Jeri Ellsworth, frequency is King !!!! Brilliant work... And on my other love too, the cars. Hope You and Amy are cool. X
It's really cool they let you record this, THX!!!
Missed you! Thanks for posting!
Wonderful !
many a thank you!!!
Awesome!!! Thanks for sharing this and thanks for posting some new videos!!!
*Wow! Excellent!* 👍 I started SWLing (shortwave listening) about 2 years ago as a hobby. Lately, I've been reading about the history and development of radio and broadcasting; shortwave, AM (medium wave), and FM. Nikola Tesla, Guglielmo Marconi, Lee de Forest, Edwin Howard Armstrong, etc... It's fascinating. Unfortunately, I know zilch about electronics. Thank you for this video about this museum. Cheers! Bob 😎📻📶
The collection they have here is mindblowing! I think places like this are very important. Thank you for showing it.
OMG I've waited so long for a video!!!
I subscribed years ago when I found out about your AR project and I think you are super awesome, so to see these awesome videos being posted it's great and to see that there are many others who've stayed subscribed and are happy to see new stuff from you warms my heart :)
WooHoo! I'm just happy you are posting again!
Wow! Welcome back Jeri

(Watching the slideshow of different parts of the collection): "WOW... WOW... WOW... WOW... WOW... WOW... WOW... WOW... WOW... WOW... WOW... WOW... WOW... WOW... WOW... "
Fascinating and wondrous place!

Welcome back. Missed your videos.
Hell, I signed in just to give this a thumbs up. Now Google is going to shove radios down my throat until I fall asleep, but I like what you're doing Jeri.
Joy, a new video from Jeri. Also, this is a wonderful museum you found there!
Lucky me, I discovered your channel a few months ago, and now youre back (:
Very interesting museum. Thanks for sharing :)
I have been to that museum and it is very impressive.
Jeri! It's great to see you're still around and doing well :D
Great filming, good pace to the presentation of information.
Awesome, we've all been hoping a while now for a new upload😀
Really educational stuff. Love this
Spark gap less dangerous then Hawaiian lava ....

I don't recommend touching either of them. :)
Yay! I've missed your videos so much!!
Wonderful. So many old rigs I recognise.
Well done and glad to see you are back
She's back!
Waiting for your video for so long, thank you. Please do some more sharing your knowledge, i mean fascinating practical stuff
Celluloid is another old plastic. It is older than bakelite. Very flammable. They still make some guitar picks out of it. Thanks for sharing. I will be heading up to Huntington sometime. About 200 miles away.
Just discovered Jeri...So glad!
She’s just a confidence builder by breaking down techie stuff that is very intimidating to me. Much appreciated! Steve (K1KTF)
Based on the comments you're a well-known you tuber. First time I've run across you. Good work on the video.
Jeri!!!! We missed you!!! welcome back!!
Thanks for doing this, very enjoyable to watch!
At closing time I would be the one annoying science guy BEGGING them to please lock me in overnight! I could spend weeks in that place! Thanks for the tour through this marvelous museum.
