Practical Wireless booklet
This is a Practical Wireless booklet that might be of interest, it has lots of projects from an earlier time, mainly valve but a few transistor.

Re: Practical Wireless booklet
I have got an Elector one from 1981.
It has been used as a bookmark in a vintage data book for many years. |

Re: Practical Wireless booklet
That looks like a compendium of existing PW articles Geoff. I’m sure if you were able to scan it then it would be a worthwhile contribution to the Americanradiohistory website.
I have a hardback book in a similar vein which I borrowed continuously from Formby library as a kid. I rarely see copies of this book which is surprising since when published in 1968 was the 18th edition. Again every circuit is lifted straight from a PW of the previous few years. Peter |

Re: Practical Wireless booklet
Yes I used to have the pink-jacketed compilation back in the 1970s - can't remember what jhappened to it though.

Re: Practical Wireless booklet
Unfortunately my fairly new hardly used Canon printer/scanner stopped working mid print, now just a useless plastic box. Seems a lot of Canon printer suffer this fault. At the moment can only take pictures of pages.
