Sebastian sent me this the other day regarding the "Digital Library of 
Amateur Radio & Communications."

Apparently they are in the process of scanning in Florida Skip and DX 
Bulletin magazines.  If any members have these or other Amateur Radio 
publications laying around, you might contact them to see if they are 
needed.

I will be sending them a few items from our recent SKs.

Very 73,
Randy N4QV

Randy, you might have seen this on a recent ARRL newsletter.

I had a big stack of the old Florida Skip magazine and most of the old 
DX Bulletin magazine, I sent them to Kay to scan and they are now on the 
Internet Archive.  Recently, he reached out to Andy Clark’s son, and I 
think he found a few more copies of the Skip.

Please pass this information to the club, as well as other ham radio 
clubs you might have connections with.  They will also start to accept 
QSL cards, so some of the old ones from SKs would be interesting to send 
to them.  Note they will send the items back to you, or they will keep 
them if you no longer want them.  No QSTs or 73 magazine, as they 
already have those.

Perhaps the clubs can just link to the Archive, no need to make 
duplicates (as at least one other club has done).

73 de Sebastian, W4AS
