Do you remember when QST was $0.50 per issue on the newstand...IF you 
could find it? ($4.00/yr USA subscription) Well, that was the price in 
1957, and I have 11 issues (missing June) for sale at a bargain price!

All are in good shape except for the November issue, which somehow lost 
most of its front cover in the past 47 years!

Includes such articles as:

The Happy Accident Ground Plane
How to Make a Folding Workbench
6L6GB's in a 2-Stage Novice Rig (by Lew McCoy)
A Novice Three-Band Antenna System (McCoy)
Parallel Dipoles of 300-Ohm Ribbon
The Evils of Multiband Antenna Systems -- And the Cure (McCoy)
A Three Band Cubical Quad Antenna System
A Compact All-Band Antenna
Mechanical Considerations in the Construction of Beams and Towers
Test Meters and How to Use Them (McCoy)
A Simple Support for Quad Antennas
Controlling Your Station With One Switch (by McCoy)
A $1.69 Keying Monitor (McCoy)
6 Elements on 6
Beam Support for Old Men (!!)
How to Adjust a Key and Send Good Code (McCoy)
A Matching System for a Three-Band Beam
A Three-Band Novice Transmitter (McCoy)
A Window Sill Antenna (McCoy)

All of this plus many other great articles...plus ads that will have 
your nostalgia juices flowing in minutes.

1957 was the year I was first licensed (KN5MVR), and these magazines 
have escaped many, many purgings in my shack over the years.  But the 
time has come at last.  Moving from a house to an RV to become a 
full-time RV'er calls for many sacrifices.  Giving up these "old 
friends" from my youth is one of the hardest.

Yours for $15 plus Media Mail postage from 76016.

CONUS ONLY.  Money Orders preferred but will accept personal checks.

Won't you please find room for these matchless reminders of a simpler, 
more innocent time?

Thank you es 73,

Ron Evans - K5MVR
