Cut up an old innertube.

I knew the German u-boats were sinking ships on the eastern seaboard and that being a merchant marine was a dangerous job in the late 1930's and early 40's. My Dad was a 31 year old shipyard welding shop foreman when the war broke out,he tried to enlist in the Navy but was declined. They wanted him to teach his skills stateside and so he did teaching many a Rosie the Riveter how to build ships at the Kaiser yards in Portland,Oregon. What many don't know is that the Japanese attacked the West coast in several places including the Oregon Coast. Jap submarines shelled the coastline but caused little damage and they also sent balloon bombs over the west coast and did kill some civilians in Oregon. https://www.smithsonianmag.com/history/1945-japanese-balloon-bomb-killed-six-americansfive-them-children-oregon-180972259/ After this attack http://www.offbeatoregon.com/o1101e-Japanese-submarine-blasted-its-way-into-Oregon-history.html I remember my dad telling me there was a run on the hardware stores and guns/ammo sold out in a short period of time,people thought we might be invaded.

Nice,I really need to build a shop with a listening room. The wife hates my Klipschorns he he. Love the old radio,I have a 1921 Westinghouse with a Magnavox horn speaker on the KG-4s in my den.

Well one thing about Trump,he's no politician. That is after all what got him elected,both parties hated him and the people hated both parties...bam!

I couldn't help but laugh when I saw it closed so soon. Never fails,politics and religion are two too touchy subjects lmao. They often go hand in hand and end up foot in mouth.....the the the that's all folks! We now return you to your regularly scheduled programming.

I set mine in corners about 10" out with the rear facing passive aimed at the corner.

....you know to never trust a fart.

James Doohan

He was the warm up for Blue Oyster Cult when I saw him,odd paring there too.

I saw Bob way back in '76.

I also saw them in a Community College Gym with Black Oak Arkansas as an opener,1970 Bend,Oregon at Central Oregon Community College.

The sawdust I hauled into Kingsford was all fresh cut hardwood from a hardwood only lumber mill in Longview,Wa.

Same thing

I'm lazy I use gas. lol. Except when camping, we'll have our little charcoal grill with us at the family campout in August. Some years back when I was driving a chip truck (woodchips not potato chips) I hauled sawdust into Kingsford by the 53' trailer load. About 30 tons of sawdust a load in this big o'l beastie.

Here's the page I got the info from. http://hhscott.com/receiver.htm

I have no idea but I found this looking for specs. The 355 was introduced as a more versatile replacement for the older 399; as such, it was the only Stereo Preamp-Tuner product ever produced by Scott. As a Tuner/Preamp (similar to the older 331-series) the 355 had no basic power amplifier section like the 399 Receiver. Instead the 355 provided a cathode follower, line-level, preamp out -- Just add the basic power amp of your choice, usually a Scott Type 208, but Mac's and Dyna's were also popular choices. The 355 added true FM-MPX stereo reception utilizing the 350/335 decoder design, incorporating the "Stereo Guide," 6AV6 tube indicator. As "Simulcast Stereo" was becoming obsolete, the 355 was the only Scott AM/FM tuner to share a (very rare) common circular tuning dial. Scott engineers cleverly resurrected the 300/320 tuning gang, but thankfully left the more complex dial-cord string and slide-rule dial inventory untouched. To accommodate a matching power amp; Scott offered the optional, 208 Power Amp; a modular piggy-back, design derived from the 7591-based 299-C amp. All audio connections, accessory AC, and antenna jacks were top-mounted on the shortened chassis, to facilitate the matching 208 "piggy-back" package. 18 tubes: 6-tube, Pre-Amplifier section: (4) 12AX7 - preamps (1) 12AU7 - cathode follower (1) 6CA4 rectifier 5-tube, FM Tuner section: (1) 6BS8/6BQ7 - FM RF amp (1) 6U8A FM mixer (3) 6AU6 (shared w/AM) 5-tube, MPX section (1) 6AV6 (6GX8) ("Stereo Guide") (1) 6BL8 - MPX (2) 12AU7 - MPX (1) 12AT7 - MPX 2-tube, AM Tuner section: (1) 6BA6 AM RF Amp (1) 6BE6

208 and so far just with the turntable and CD.

Yuppers

355 tuner/preamp and 208 amp.

Found this old thread doing a Google search, I just bought a 355/208 set and need an owners manual for it. I'd love to get a copy if possible, willing to pay for one if I can find one.

Just hooked my new to me HH Scott tube set (just serviced with new tubes and re-capped) with my recently acquired '72 Klipsch Khorns and holly mother of God this set sounds fantastic! Hooked up my just serviced and with a new stylus Marantz turntable with a clean vinyl copy of Pink Floyd Dark Side and wow just wow! I'm a happy camper tonight!

Keep on truckn'
