Yes, a gold mine of a website!
After spending an hour scrolling around in all the magazine archives I noticed "Frequency Modulation Magazine" from the late 1940s when FM was being introduced, Major Edwin Armstrong its inventor was still alive and wrote regular articles... at one time I had a stack of those magazines given to me by the chief engineer at one of the early FM stations... stolen by someone from my home library.
The age of the great electronics magazines was something special... when electronic parts were human sized and could be seen by eye and handled by hands.
Some of the most interesting days of human history lasted very briefly and now its all about obsolescence including us as disposable commodities.
