Welcome to the forum!

You can always host the images for free on imgur.com and link them directly in your post. If you get the direct URL for the image and then surround the link within [ img ] [ /img ] (remove the spaces in the [ ] ) it will display the picture. There are a series of buttons above the text body when making a post that will input the html for you automatically when you click it.

I have a few photos on Dropbox. I don't have faith in FREE hosting sites anymore. I had hundreds of photos on Photobucket. Now they are for all intents and purposes lost to me. I was able to download and save several photos, but they were condensed versions from those I uploaded. If I try to blow them up to check detail, they pixel out right away. Now If I upload any photos to a host, I keep a copy on my computer and a thumb drive.

Here's my first Mosrite circa 1980. It's a late '60s/early '70s Mark I.

I found a partial pot code on the red Ventures. The manufacturer code numbers were covered by solder, but the last four numbers put the pots at early 1966. The sunburst has late 1966 Centralab pots.
