When I was in Boy Scouts the troop leader was from the radio club in town. My dad was the president for years.
Our troop made money by getting old radios and TV's and then taking all the tubes out and testing them.
We'd find good ones and sell them at Hamfests. There was a lot of money in that for quite a few years in the 1970's.
We funded a Colorado trip, Piedmont, and some other cool places.

I'm the only guy you'll ever meet who doesn't like ham or bacon.
Sounds delicious.

I found two panavices that are for holding circuit boards while you work on them and an old oscilloscope.

I have no such pictures unless my mom hoards that too.
It would not surprise me. I still have my pinewood derby car. I tossed the uniforms, and my scout ties a couple years ago when we moved. Shoulda asked then. Troop 7 Champaign...porbably still exists.
Were you a boy scout too?
