Jetking MW kit was the first PCB soldering experience for me. It cost then Rs.60 I think. Had a dark grey cabinet and bought from Components and Devices in Ernakulam (Cochin). Prior to that the opener of Sri Krishna Radio Company in Ernakulam gave me a manual of Jetking and made me drool over it till my dad got his bonus to buy me one. Dad also had a collection of books by Janakiraman that started with a crystal set and progresses to a 6 transistor radio. I also assembled Jetking's two band radio after some time.
Unfortunately, the urge to tinker around to get better clarity, more stations etc. without understanding the limitations broke them.
