From his first long nose pliers, at the age of six, to his private use of the chemistry lab at his junior high-school, Pete Friedrichs, AC7ZL, has had a fascination with technology, chemistry, and radio. Often this is old but amazing technology that he recreates with the remnants of discarded objects. Pete is a renaissance man whose study and fabrication of "simple" technology rivals that of some of America's great inventors. He is a published author of books based on his experiments, as well as fiction and ghost stories. AC7ZL is Eric's guest on QSO Today.

This was a great show. Thanks for posting it here. I highly recommend anyone with interest in Science/Electronics or Mechanics, listening to the interview. Pete makes good points about how technology and skill is being lost. I totaly agree with everything he was saying!
