Hello there, I'm looking for you old tired stack of 73 and
Ham Radio Magazines just to read at my pleasure.

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.
