Ted,
G3RJV - the Reverend George Dobbs has spent a lot of time and energy
creating easy to build radios. He has also done a lot with children to
help their interest in building and radio.
His name is familiar to most QRPers and until last year has presented at
FDIM - always quite interesting.
He has publish many articles and books, but one that may be of interest
is available online at
http://www.mds975.co.uk/Content/george_dobbs_trf_radio.html.
Inexpensive materials and easy to build are two things that George
always adhered to.
73,
Don W3FPR

Looking for suggestion about books or kits or whatever else that might interest
a ten year old to electronics and to amateur radio. He is adept at mechanical
things and pretty bright. What else could he be? He’s my grandson.
But his understanding of electronics is well insulated by contemporary smart
phones and games and the like, about the innards of which one can learn nothing
in the old way – the way we did it, by taking the family radio apart and then
having to learn how to put it back together.
