Life with X01T

Dec. 2007 - updating

    It's just an average user's note enjoying Toshiba X01T Windows Mobile 6 based smart phone. This latest digital device was expected to replace my mobile phone, Linux-based Sharp Zaurus PDA and Sanyo IC voice recorder altogether. It was simply found, that dedicated equipments provide the most.

Origin of "0-V-2" Nomenclature

Jan. 2006 -updating

    Building a vacuum tube shortwave receiver is universal fun and preasure for radio amateurs. Thinking to build one more time a 0-V-2 which I build when I was 11 years old, I realized that the word "0-V-2" never appears in American radio articles. Where the nomenclature "0-V-1" or "0-V-2" came from? Who originated it in which country? Could it be in U.K. or Germany, or Italy? If the letter "V" means "Valve", it would be in Britain - "R" would be used if it was from Germany.... This was how this small study had begun. Still I don't get my conclusion. If you have an old article using a term "0-V-1" or "0-V-2", I'd be very happy to know the title of the article associated with the year it was published.
