 Bill W6SAI has published much EIMAC amp info in the past in the wonderful
magazine HAM RADIO ( no longer excisting, sri) and in many editions of the
RADIO HANDBOOK. The EIMAC APPLICATION NOTES, mostly by Bill, were also
great. I tried to convince Reid Brandon to again make those notes avaiable
on the net but it seems the company was not interested. If Bill himself has
the copyrights, we have better ask him right here on the net. He seems to be
a silent amps net reader and once send me a mail.

Again my suggestion: scan in on a CD all the articles on amps from the past
plus manufacturers tube data, component data, extracts from the Radio
Handbook and the ARRL Radio Amateurs Handbook. Before it is too late and all
the old guys like me, who have this info, are gone.

Maybe SAMS , who maybe have the copyright on the RADIO HANDBOOK, may be
interested??  This project is really possible nowadays. You find QST and the
UK RADIO COMMUNICATIONS ( formerly RSGB BULLETIN) on CDs. And at last: why
not scan in on CDs all issues of the HAM RADIO magazine. There were many
fantastic articles - not only on amps.

What say guys??
