HEY Ron

(03-13-2012, 07:17 PM)Ron Ramirez Wrote:  Apologies for the rant about Radiomuseum...H**l, it's (still) a free country - Canada too - and anyone is of course free to give pictures to this site without charge, or to Radiomuseum for $25, or whatever.

Arran, eBay sellers have stolen pictures from the Philco Gallery in the past, but I made it harder to do this (I won't go into details). Plus each image is now watermarked, so there is no doubt where it came from if someone does steal an image.

BILL - No, I don't recall your sending me a photo of the Transitone 3...I'll certainly be happy to use anything you wish to send...

Ron;
Rant away about Radiomuseeeem, I don't particularly like the format or the layout of their website myself. What I don't understand is why people are constantly putting plugs about that site on here and the other forum, do they have an Amway style network marketing scheme or something? The photo gallery and the rest of it is pretty crude and barren for a pay site, the only good thing about it is that they do have schematics for a lot of European sets, but then again there are other sources of those too.
Regards
Arran
