My dad, whose dad had a radio and tv repair shop, got me a kit for making one when I was a little kid. I spend the day coiling the wire and following the instructions. When I was done and the artifact captured radio waves I was so excited! It's one of those vivid memories from childhood, a moment that put me on the path for a technology focused career.

It was my introduction to numbers stations, but I never found radio that interesting, when I had the internet available)
