[ARC5] New Homes for Old Warriors

[Robert Eleazer]

"The point I'm trying to make about #1 and #2 above is that if the physical radios don't survive through the years for one reason or another, the digitized material on a website most likely will."

Good point!  But it will have to be located on several websites.  Decades ago I carefully collected Gordon White's CQ Magazine Command set articles and offered high quality scans of them.  I was told, "That stuff is already on line anyway." but none of the people who said that offered to tell me where.  One gentleman said he wanted to basically break the articles up into a web page format rather than just offer .jpg scans, which is the simplest way I know of.  But one website owner posted them just as I scanned them.  However, that website now says "temporarily unavailable."

A few years ago I was giving guest lectures at Embry Riddle University and offered them my collection of launch failure videos.  The library people there were enthused about the idea and accepted them, saying they were going to make them available on-line to qualified researchers.  The other day I contacted the library there and offered to come up and help script the videos so they knew what they had and what was being depicted.

But it seems they just sort of threw them away.
