Many thanks to all who replied.
I found the article describing the decision to cease publishing; but
searching could not found a source for any CDs.
CDs would presumably be a very compact way to store 73 literature. Any URLS?
Thanks again. Terry.

I wouldn't be too suprised if the ARRL someday started offering
CD's of 73. They got a hold of all the old HamRadio mag's on
CD (I thought CQ would get the rights to them. Maybe CQ will
get the rights to 73 if the ARRL doesn't).


I agree.

Probably all tied up in the Chapter 7 process right now, but the
rights to selling back issues, on paper or on CD, would be a saleable
asset of the magazine.

It may take a couple of years for them to be sold to an outfit which
would be able to publish them, but there is certainly enough interest
in a narrow market to make it worth someone's while.

In theory, someone could also buy the rights to the magazine itself,
and restart publishing 73.

Happy trails,
