Young Wizards of the Airwaves dream. Stern warnings from irate fathers tend to go unheeded— even to the brink of catastrophe. Keith was deadly with the brace and bit. His bedroom window- frames were like Swiss cheese. There were even holes drilled in the glass! Countless feet of wire passed through these many holes, travelled up the side of the house and over the roof where they climbed up a pole crudely lashed to the main chimney. From here they stretched out in a four-strand formation high over the yard and street and across to another pole nailed to the gable-end of a barn.
