P-Box Kits from Radio Shack

Does anyone know of a web page of the old Radio Shack (or was it Archer) P-Box kits? Does anyone remember these kits for that matter? Even if you have a listing of what kits used to be available, that would be interesting as well. I remember a Field Strength Meter kit, VOX kit, Short Wave Radio kit, and so on. These were in the little red and clear boxes and were a neat way to get started in electronics.

I myself made many of these kits in my youth, and would love to get my hands on one for old times sake. I have never seen one for sale on E-Bay, but I always hope. Let me know what you find.

Jolly Roger,
Thanks for posting the question. It gives this old timer another source of information about electronics.I never saw those kits but I do remember that Radio Shack had circuit boards with the instructions to build various things that were often quite complex. At that time I had neither the time or the money to do that. Greybie
