Hello there,

I'm looking for you old tired stack of 73 and Ham Radio Magazines just to
read at my pleasure. I'll be scanning some of the better articles into pdf
files and making them available to others for free. Many of you have
already seen the www.radiowrench.com/sonic web page.

If you'd like to donate or sell cheap your old mags, I'd like to have
them. Where practical, I'll pay the shipping/postage and a bit for your
time.

Please take the NOSPAMPLEASE from my email address below and drop me a
line if you'd like to part with some old magazines...

73's

I have an old 1950 Radio Experiment magazine with all sorts of tube
projects. It's yellowed and falling apart. I'm trying to scan it
and wanted to post the scans someplace. I started posting on the
alt.binaries.photo.radio and rec.antique.radio+phono newsgroups
and got lots of good ideas on how to adjust my scanner and what
format to save it in. When I have the time to scan all 160 pages
I'd like to make this available (I don't have the web space and
the binaries news groups only have a life time of a few days).

I have lots of old (1966-1973) pop'tronics magazines and some
1970-1980 CQ and assorted 73's someplace. I know I have
the very first 2 73 magazines hidden someplace. Also late 60's
electronics illustrated magazines. Eventually, I'd like to scan
all of them and make them available.

Somewhere around I have several old Pop'tronics mags from the 50's --
including the very first from Oct. 1954.

Ham Radio is available by the boxload at every ham radio
flea market I've ever been to. It's also available on CDROM
from the ARRL. Handy, because it's better-indexed than
the paper magazine ever was.

"Because I'm a cheap screw" has never been an excuse for
copyright infringement.

I would agree with that. Making copies of available magazines
for posting on download sites is a clear violation of copyright.
HOWEVER, making copies of out of print, rare, un-obtainable
magazines that have a value to collectors might be viewed
by some in another light. One could even say we are saving
a valuable resource from becoming lost forever.
