I would like to give a hearty shout-out to the good folks at HamNation, via Leo Laporte’s TWiT network, for so prominently featuring Ears To Our World–and ETOW’s new HumanaLight kit!–in the latest episode.

This year at the Dayton Hamvention, I was pleased to meet George Thomas (W5JDX), who produces the excellent “Solder Smoke” series of instructional videos which teach novices how to build kits and other electronic projects. I’ve always found these videos clear, highly comprehensible, and easy to follow. George kindly agreed to make an instructional video for us, clearly illustrating how to build the HumanaLight.

George is also a co-host of HamNation, but I never thought he would include the HumanaLight in an episode. I was surprised to find that he made the HumanaLight kit a “Solder Smoke” segment, then went on to prominently promote ETOW...truly an honor. His video, moreover, does an excellent job showing viewers how to build the HumanaLight (and mentions that you can purchase one at Universal Radio).

For the interesting history behind the HumanaLight, read this post or check out HumanaLight.org.
