This is a bit over a month old but I've not seen it mentioned anywhere:
https://blog.archive.org/2022/10/04/internet-archive-seeks-donations-of-materials-to-build-a-digital-library-of-amateur-radio-and-communications/
The Internet Archive already has the complete collection of "73"
magazine donated by Wayne Green before he passed away. Other
information is likely in their archives as well.
Much is scattered over various Web sites with one of my personal
favorites being http://earlyradiohistory.us/ which covers much more than
ham radio. ARRL members have access to the QST archive and while the
articles are there it takes a bit of sleuth work to read them one issue
at a time. Also, most of the ads are not available unless and article
spilled into the back or the Section News was printed on a particular
page.
It will be interesting to see what the folks at the Internet Archive
come up with.
73, Nate
