Above: The Fox Hole Radio built with a WWII-era âbluedâ razor blade and pencil lead for the detector. Note the bamboo coil form and the paper clip attached to a cork used to slide along the coil turns to tune the radio. The orange wire goes to the antenna, the black wire to ground.
FIV is diagnosed with a âsnapâ test, usually in combination with the Felv test. A positive FIV test almost always indicates active infection.

So, if you have an FIV positive kitten, before panicking, have the kitten retested at 6 months of age.
