The Glowbugs e-mailing list covers the hands-on use of vacuum tube technology in amateur radio equipment of the bygone era. Home-built equipment from the early 1920's through the 1970's is within its scope. All aspects of design, building, testing, operating, and troubleshooting such equipment is appropriate for this group.
A lot of the discussions center on homebrewing of tube amateur radio equipment.
