Library: links to books and magazines - UK Vintage Radio Repair and Restoration Discussion Forum

A place to collect together links to on-line resources of books and magazines.

Post them here. Such info is scattered throughout the forum. It seemed to deserve a proper place where those looking could find it.

Radtechman suggested this site which kicked-off the idea for the thread:

http://www.tubebooks.org/technical_books_online.htm#Radio

If I copied his post, it would appear before the introduction, as will any pre-existing posts, because of the way the forum software works. So existing good links will need quoting to get them here and still leave the intro at the beginning.

There's a separate thread for data sheets and data books. So that's a good place for an r-type link and AVO VCM data books.

The idea is to help people looking for things.

One of my websites, containing a mix of articles, books and other documents etc that may be of interest.
