ARRL Presents New Membership Benefit

With just a mouse click or two, ARRL members can now access the 
online QST magazine archive. This new benefit -- a service of the 
ARRL Technical Information Service (TIS) -- provides PDF copies of 
all QST articles from December 1915 through December 2004, enabling 
members to view and print their favorite article, project and more. 
For many years, the TIS has provided members with assistance 
researching ARRL periodicals and publications, as well as providing 
members and non-members with article reprints for a small fee. Access

to the new online digital QST archive is free for ARRL members

"Having access to every issue of QST through 2004 is absolutely 
incredible!" said ARRL Lab Manager Ed Hare, W1RFI. "The best of the 
best of QST from every era is now at the fingertips of every ARRL 
member with a keyboard and an Internet connection. Members can 
research articles on any subject that interests them, or just browse 
the past issues. This will be a popular membership benefit that will 
be of special value to new and long-time hams alike. This valuable 
content will help radio amateurs who use QST as a technical resource
-
- for projects, equipment 'hints and kinks' -- and for other research

contributing to the advancement of the radio art. We know many hams 
will simply enjoy perusing these pages of history, too."

The ARRL Periodicals Archive and Search lists every article for QST 
from 1915 to the present, QEX from 1981 to the present, Ham Radio 
from 1968 to 1990 and NCJ from 1973 to the present (please note that 
beginning in 1998, each issue of QEX covers two months). Only ARRL 
members will be able to download and print copies of the QST
articles.

QST magazine is the official journal of ARRL, the national 
association for Amateur Radio. An interest in Amateur Radio is the 
only essential qualification of membership. ARRL membership is $39 
per year in the US. For a complete list of membership benefits and 
dues, please visit the ARRL Membership Web page at
