[ARC5] Radio Electronics Magazine

[Robert Eleazer]

462 pages!  No kidding!  Now that's a magazine.  And I'll have to admit that I've not seen an issue of Popular Mechanics in I don't know how many years,

Take a look at this:  https://archive.org/details/PopularMechanics1935

  I have a Aug 1935 issue of Popular mechanics on my desk at the moment because it contains a schematic for a radio i am currently restoring.  This issue has 462 pages of really interesting stuff including a large proportion of DIY information.


  I have not seen a modern issue of Popular mechanics ( or similar)  in years that contained enough information to make purchase at the news stand price attractive.

  And at a somewhat higher level there was the old Electronics magazine,
  not so much construction articles as articles about practical applications
  of electronic stuff in the industry.  I can remember when that magazine
  was hundreds of pages per issue.  But, sadly, it was turned into more of
  a non-technical, business news magazine and ultimately passed away.
  Although it was no doubt given a push by the free, controlled circulation
  magazines aimed at working engineers.
