NewsLetters

A few notes about the Newsletters.
  • The Newsletters are listed from the most recent (current); back to the first one.
  • The newsletters were originally printed in three column format - whichsometimes does not transfer well to the screen. They are presented here in a singlewide column format which is why they sometimes look funky. Also- the editor is a rank amateur - so cutting him some slack is in order.
  • Since they are "old" - Calendar of Events items and ClassifiedAds have been ommited from all but the current issue - this is why some Newsletters are rather "thin".
  • Though the intention was (is) to produce 12 issues a year - circumstances sometimes prevented that - so there are "holes" in the list. All of the issues published are online here.
  • Articles and /or other help in putting this Newsletter out is solicited and would be greatly appreciated.
  • Radio Collecting Today is Copyrighted by the Club. It maybe reproduced in newsletters of other (non-profit) clubs as long as the source is sighted and copyrights noted. The Antique Radio Classifieds and Electric Radio are the only for-profit publications with continuing permission to copy. Any other for-profit publication must obtain permission to copy Radio Collecting Today Articles.
  • and lastly - yes - the color pictures in Vol. 5 issue 5 (4-12/96) here were in color in the actual Newsletters. We have color capability - but we use it sparingly as it is a rather high cost factor. (This is probably the most asked question we get about the Newsletters!).
