There are two sites, one is leehite.org/callbooks. Forgot what the
other was but if you do a search for 1953 Radio Amateur Call book it
will show up. Run by a W0 iirc. I think they are the same call books
just presented in a different format. And yes, W0MAG does show up in
the Fall 1953 book. I've been thru a lot of those since the 1947 issue
looking for that call.
I was wondering if the QCWA might have a bunch of them. Thanks to those
of you who responded.
