IEEE Spectrum has a nice article about Alfred Morgan and his influence on aspiring engineers and technicians. When I was about 13, I sure enjoyed reading about how to make a crystal set and a one-tube radio (with a 1G4 or 1H4 tube). Within a few years, I got my ham license, and less than 10 years later, I earned my BSEE. I've been an IEEE member for decades and am glad they chose to recognize an author who had such a positive effect on so many lives. The Homebrew Radios section of this forum frequently has posts about radios built to the old Alfred P. Morgan specs.

Origin of the term 'Elmer' The term 'Elmer'--meaning someone who provides personal guidance and assistance to would-be hams--first appeared in QST in a March 1971 'How's DX' column by Rod Newkirk, W9BRD (now also VA3ZBB). Newkirk called them 'the unsung fathers of Amateur Radio.' While he probably was not trying to coin a term at the time, here's how Newkirk introduced 'Elmer' in his column and, as it turned out, to the rest of the Amateur Radio world: 'Too frequently one hears a sad story in this little nutshell: 'Oh, I almost got a ticket, too, but Elmer, W9XYZ, moved away and I kind of lost interest.' ' Newkirk went on to say, 'We need those Elmers. All the Elmers, including the ham who took the most time and trouble to give you a push toward your license, are the birds who keep this great game young and fresh.' --Rick Lindquist, N1RL As you can see, the term is not very old.

I have received a lot of suggestions; teacher, mentor, tutor, guide, helper, sage? All are appropriate but my guess would be that first and foremost they were called friend. Thank you for sharing that article. It seems that his earliest book, 'The Boy Electrician' is in the public domain and available for download in PDF format. However, it is 200 Mb, so if you have a slow connection, it'll take a while.

I have a couple first editions that predate The Boy Electrician - one being Wireless Telegraphy and Telephony Simply Explained and the other, I can't remember of the top of my head. Also, he wrote a book on building a glider that was first published before 1910, IIRC. If any one has a copy of that book that they'd like to donate to me, please PM. _________________ Mike From the banks of the Big River, currently living in the lapse of luxury!
