Ken Smith on Ohm's Law and Electronics-Kit Building 10-27-17.wav

Ohm's law states that the current through a conductor between two points is directly proportional to the voltage across the two points. 

In this audio clip from Oct 27, 2017, Ken describes Ohm's Law and about radio and kit building in the 60s.  Some of you should remember Heathkit.

Note in the graphic that I=Current, V=Voltage, and R=Resistance.
