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

https://archive.org/details/dlarc

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

Good to hear!  I can have most of the Florida ham clubs reach out to you, with other things that might be of interest.  Or perhaps to one of the ARRL division officers.

Is it ok to forward your email to them?

Yes please! Thank you.

Here are some links with background information about the project:

Thanks and 73
