[sdiy] History of SDIY?

[Rob Kam]

Not yet the full set. I have the Musical Engineer's Handbook, the Preferred Circuits Collection and some late 1970s volumes.

To be fair to Rob, nearly half your list is already in his list, Ian.  And he added the caveat "I'm certain to have left still others out".  It's not clear whether he has his obligatory copy of Electronotes yet or not to be able to pull some of those other names.

I agree with you that the missing names should make the list as well.  Hopefully this exercise can help bring recognition to all the folks who've helped move this thing called SDIY forward and not just the ones who've made the popularity lists :).

I still don’t see the Electronotes contributors. Terry Michaels provided the most advanced VCO and VCF designs in existence.  They were adapted by numerous commercial outfits. Lester Ludwig, John Marshall, Doug Slocum, Craig Anderton,  Ralph Burhans, Dave Rossum, Hal Chamberlin, Howard  Moskovitz, Jan Hall, Don Lancaster, William Hartman, Allen Strange, Don Buchla, Bill Hemsath, Tom Oberheim, Julius Smith, Marvin Jones, Peter Lutz, Alan R. Pearlman, Robert Moog, Paul Schreiber, Doug Curtis, Grant Richter, Steiner Parker, Graham Hinton, Robert Iodice, Martin Hurni, Dale Wills: these are names just from the early years.  You may check whether they meet your criteria.
