The scientists Aylesworth talked to suggested there were probably additional impurities in the tin to make that first transistor work ... friend who is an amateur radio hobbyist.

My first battery-powered radio — a ten-transistor Realtone — came from my Aunt Ina when I was about seven. I used to think I was ten, but the songs from 1973 would be wrong: I distinctly ...
