I have bought them all and newer ones have color.
The scanned pages are in TIF format. The added software provides some search ability but does not search for specific text by looking at all the scanned pages. I would suspect the search part of the programs only have indexes to article titles authors etc. It can only provide search results for what has been programmed into that search database. I have not been disappointed by the CD with one exception. You can not copy/move all the CD's to one hard drive on the computer and have a look or search. SOOOO you are left with LOADING and searching one CD at a time. The search tool database does accumulate all the files so you can use the search tool that is provided. But still a pain to load and look one at a time. Something to do between band closings eh. I think the common viewing tool is Adobe... one version or another from the ARRL disks. The TIF files and Folders are sort of date coded names so you can just browse through them with any viewer that will read TIF files. For example the folder with a file in it named 7403001 would be the 1974 March cover page. FWI 75 cents cover price then LOL My Windows XP picture viewer displays them ok. The individual TIF files can be copied to the hard drive so you can get a group of some series of articles together and view and work from one folder for convenience. Sorry not taking any orders. The few folks I have helped with an article didn't even bother to send a thank you email. blnt Pay some$$$ for CDs to the ARRL and support the hobby. Numbers count. 73 K4TWO Gary "Ron in Radio Heaven" wrote in message om... Edmund H. Ramm wrote: Are these CDs readable with non-proprietary software? The reader software is on the CD. Ron |
