A neighbor gave me a stack of his old magazines when I was a kid. The Pop' Tronics Carl and Jerry were great. Some highlights I recall reading:
Carl and Jerry setup an underwater microphone and wind up with a cat
Carl and Jerry work on building an oscillator that runs on a battery made of coins and salty spit. It saves their lives when they get trapped in the basement of the school and they are able to send a Morse Code signal using the device.
They play with a Geiger counter and think they've discovered uranium.
They play with diathermy using their ham radio. They experiment on their cat.
The go to college and "discover" the school has a nuclear plant in one of the buildings. They can look through a window and see the control rods going up and down. A custodian informs them all they are looking at is the cables to an elevator.
They play a prank at college by putting a speaker inside a mailbox and run the wires up to their dorm room. Of course they get caught.
They make a girl detector.
They make a spy ear for the local mall Santa so Santa will know the kids names when they walk up to him.
They make a spectacular electric show for a teacher trying to demonstrate static electricity with outdated unworking equipment.
There are probably many more but I cannot think of them.
