Six years ago, I presented an tutorial on RFI in pro audio at the IEEE 
EMC Symposium in Chicago.  One of the major EU ferrite mfrs had a booth, 
and I discussed my work with the salesmen who inhabited the booth. They 
told me that they had bought all of the publisher's stock of the book 
and given them to their clients.  I hoped that they would send me one on 
the basis of the extensive work I had published. Silly me. :)

I held a copy of the first edition in my hands, and xeroxed a bunch of 
pages. KC9GLI, who was then a prof at U of Chicago, found it in the 
third sub- basement of their library and loaned it to me for my research.

73, Jim K9YC
