addendum...For some of the whacky jacks the tin foil helmet is not a deflector of evil rays but a reciever that allows them to talk to God ( among the religiously inclined) or to talk with the Borgons from Planet Beta-Lurgan 4 ( for those more cosmically oriented). The reciever types of tin foil helmets are more complex with resistors, coins, and bits of wire or pop tops hanging from them to better enable the Whacky Jack to tune in to the proper frequency.

Thanks for the addedum:

I'll fire up the old Hammarlund (real radios glow in the dark) and do an aperiodic scan for those frequencies. Of course, my R/S EK01 is my favorite from that era, but unfortunately now it needs some focused attention.

Thanks again.
