I had a theremin about a year ago, and it was very frustrating.  I
have a good ear for pitch, and even after a month of trying to play a
theremin, I could not play anything very well.  I finally put an
electronic tuner on the instrument, and found that, even after hours
of warm up, it would drift maybe 3-4 half-steps during a 3-minute
song.  Fortunately, I was able to return it.  I'll probably try again
someday, so I keep subscribed to the various theremin forums.  


I'm not an ee like David, but I did manage to build lots of tube and
transistor radios and transmitters (most of them illegal) when I was a
kid on the farm, during the Johnson Administration, so I like the
combination of circuits and music, too.
