[JMS] Two Millen books posted

[gardgore at aol.com]

Brian, 
Congratulations on joining JMS and welcome aboard. You have made an excellent contribution by making electronic copies of both of these fine publications available to us which will be useful to many and certainly appreciated. Radio Design Practice which is a collection of engineering drawings and specifications for many parts National made in the 1930s is an excellent reference source and actually quite rare. Your Notes on Amateur Radio Transmitter Design is especially useful to me at the moment. I am currently in the process of going through two National NTX-30 transmitters and two NTE exciters and having the copy on my desktop makes it convenient to find various specifications. Now if I could just find that elusive National NSM Modulator!

73, Greg; WA1KBQ

Greetings!  I'm a new member of the James Millen Society and happy to be 
ssociated with others who appreciate Millen's engineering excellence.  
My "collection" of Millen gear consists of only a 1942 HRO that's in the process 
f being re-capped.  So while my hardware stash can't compare to most Society 
embers, I might still have something to offer.  To commemorate my acceptance in 
he group, I've posted two of Millen publications that I have not found 
therwise available.  They are his Radio Design Guide 1935 and Notes on Amateur 
adio Transmitter Design from 1938.  They're on my web site at: 
ttp://n4trb.com/AmateurRadio/National/Millen.htm
While on the site you might also be interested in a complete set of G-E Ham 
ews: http://n4trb.com/AmateurRadio/GE_HamNews/ge_ham_news.htm
I'm also involved with a group of guys on a ham history email list as we try to 
ssemble a complete set of RCA Ham Tips too.  We've got a good start but there 
re some holes, particularly issues that might have appeared during the war 
ears.  The set as is can be found here: http://n4trb.com/AmateurRadio/RCA_Ham_Tips/rca_ham_tips.htm
I need to send out a special thanks to Tim Walker, W1GIG, whom I met at the 
ntique Wireless Association (AWA) conference a couple of weeks ago.  He signed 
ff on my membership application and also got me set up with most all the parts 
 need to build a 1929 Hartley and get it on the air for the AWA Bruce Kelly 
vent.  THANKS, Tim!
Comments are welcome!
73,
rian
