Heathkit brings back memories for me. When i was in High School in the early '60s, a friend of mine built a complete cabinet style stereo system using Heathkit. It was about 4 or 5 feet long and I forget if it had am/fm in it (I'm sure it must have.) The first records we listened to were the soundtrack from "The War At Sea"...Absolutely amazing it was at the time.
