[sdiy] Old electronics magazines

Like quite a few other people on this list, I also have collected magazines
for years, but perhaps I've gone that little bit further than most.

I have complete collections of most of the UK based electronics magazines,
including ETI, Practical Electronics, Hobby Electronics, Electronics &
Computing and Elektor. I have virtually complete collections of Maplin
Electronics and Everyday Electronics and over 50 years of Wireless World. I
plan to fill out my collections of Practical Wireless and Radio &
Electronics Constructor to the same level in the near future.

I also have a virtually complete collection of Circuit Cellar and about 200
other American mags, like Radio Electronics, Electronics World, Popular
Electronics, etc.

On a more musical note, I have a complete collection of E&MM, Sound on Sound
and Computer Music as well as the majority of Music Technology, The Mix,
Future Music and most of Home & Studio Recording.

I can then add my collection of Computer (full sets of Byte, PCW, PC-Pro
Practical Computing, PC-Plus, etc.), Hi-Fi, Car, Woodwork and miscellaneous
other magazines to bring my current total to well in excess of 10,000
magazines (actually - probably closer to 11,000 now).

I'm happy to help out with occasional scans of magazines and have a long
term plan to build a comprehensive website to hopefully re-present quite a
few of these old articles, if I can work out a way with the obvious
copyright holders.

If anyone is interested, I've also started compiling a list of interesting
Electro-Music projects and articles in a summary Excel spreadsheet. This is
very much a work in progress but is pretty complete for ETI and PE and about
10 years of Elektor.

Regards

Mike

Y-ellow All.
         Out of interest, I have many circuits culled from the annals of 
ETI, up on my decrepit and unkempt web site. In particular, reader 
submitted gems. Stuff you'll no-longer find in the tissues. It's an 
incomplete collection however. It was a thankless task and one I never got 
back to.

However, I collected ETI, PE, EA and even AEM, right through the 80s and 
part of the 90s. Including their off shoot publications on audio and 
computing. I also have some older stuff dating back to the 1960s.

If there's something you desperately need, there's a better than small 
chance I have it. Scanning it with my nice new shiny HP all-in-one piece of 
crap might be another matter however. Last time I updated the driver, 
everything but the printer stopped working.

But raid the web site as you see fit.

Hope this helps.

Be absolutely icebox.
