Here is another of the "Radio Term Illustrated" type of comic, which appeared in the December 1939 issue of Radio News magazine. The DXing Hams can get a bit animated when trying to squeeze the last picowatt out of a long distance contact. I'm not sure why the guy is depicted as a country hick when for certain there were plenty of polished city slickers who resorted to the same antics. A big list of other electronics-themed comics is at the bottom of the page, many of which contain other of the "Radio Term Illustrated" style.

These Technically−Themed Comics Appeared in Vintage Electronics Magazines. I personally scanned and posted every one from copies I own (and even colorized some).
