My dad was a BSEE, we spent our Saturdays at Radio Shack (late 70’s early 80’s). I had all those kits, TRS80, Osborne, all the toys. I ended up a RF engineer.

Good dad. Where would you take your kid these days? Most store stocks are online now :/

Honestly were on the sub, HAM meetings/fest/swaps. About the only true hands on group, everything else is throw away.

Great YT channel for all things geeky (and he just got his HAM license). But he can be a little raunchy in the short videos so maybe prescreen before showing the kiddos. He is really funny though
