[sdiy] Discrete OTA

[Pete Hartman]

Bernie still makes the dead tree version available to all comers for a
very reasonable cost, and scans things periodically and posts them as
well.  I had a query about an article Thomas Henry had cited and he
went to the trouble of scanning it and putting it up without batting
an eyelash.  Given the expense it would take to have a well-scanned
complete Electronotes available on the web, and the fact that a lot of
the core concepts *are* scanned and available, I think he's found a
reasonable middle ground.

It's fair to note as well that reading Electronotes still takes some
effort on the part of the reader.  So the sorts of folks who want
everything handed to them and who might just scan and put up other
people's work seem less likely to go grab Electronotes that for that
purpose.
