Wireless World magazine (UK version) from February 1965

You appear to be in the UK so you can just toddle down to your local public library. The staff can get a copy via inter library loan or a photocopy from the British Library. There is a small fee and it can take a couple of months. Sometimes the staff at the main library in your council district have a better idea of the procedure so it can be easier to go there.

Alternatively, though they don't publisise it, university librarys are generally open to the public, they typically want proof of identity to let you in. They have to be nominally open to the public to get new books at library prices.

The terrible ex-polytechnic that I went to had decades of practical wireless, wireless world etc.

1965 is a bit too far back to find a pirate copy on the internet but there is a good chance of a paper copy appearing on ebay if you watch for a while.

Rather than this

you should learn how to do this *-*-*-marked-as-Read-in-ALL-*-groups+Newsgroups.line

Have you actually asked WW ?

You should learn how to simply shut the f*ck up, you retarded twit.

Your spew is far worse than any you wish to "correct".

Correct yourself, asswipe.

Hi Bob and the group,

Many thanks for taking the time to reply and for the information.

You are quite correct, I am indeed in the UK but was quite unaware that University librarys are open for the public, very handy to know for future reference.

Someone kindly e-mailed me a copy of the article on Sunday evening so I am now able to continue my research.

Thanks again and best wishes to all on the list.

Hi JeffM,

And I thought I understood the Internet :-) Good tip, thanks, I will bear it in mind for next time. "You live and learn" as they say.

Best wishes,

Des.

Hi Baron and the group,

The WW have changed name several times since the article was printed. The last time I enquired the magazine was called "Electronics and Wireless World" but I was informed that the archive did not contain matterial going back that far. Since then the name of the magazine has changed yet again, not sure if its still running now.

Thanks for taking the time to respond and thanks to all who responded both on and off list.

Thanks again to all.

I think you're over-estimating public access to library facilities in the UK.

Dale Carnegie never got across the pond.

You might try contacting Jan-Martin Nöding for a copy. He uses parts of Johnsons '65 article for a web page gloss of LF tuning methods.

I have a virtually complete set from the late 1940s to 2005; but they have never been properly sorted out, so finding any particular article might take a long time.

Not at all. You can order up anything for a nominal fee. Almost every town has a public library, and even tiny hamlets have a travelling library service that visits once a week.

The Victorians viewed public education as an important public virtue and by statute the copyright libraries are entitled to a free copy of every book imprinted in the UK.

The better local libraries still have pretty good collections, and can order things up from the national collection for nominal 50p or £1 fee. If it is an extremely rare book you may have to make do with a photocopy of requested pages or travel to the nearest library with a copy.

And as someone else has pointed out if you go to the nearest university library (with a handful of exceptions) you can get most things, or use their online indexing to find the nearest copy.

Andrew Carnegie the super rich US steel tycoon was born a Scot and was a benefactor of many (~2000) UK libraries like Edinburgh for instance. He predates his distant cousin Dale by some considerable time.

And some like Manchester were funded by councils using powers granted to them in the Museums & Libraries Act 1850.

Please do not use that kind of language anywhere I can read it. It is clear to me that your parents were never married, and this has disadvantaged you in some respect [probably IQ]. Thankyou,..................................................................D= on C.

If you get completely stuck, I should have that issue (but it may take some time to find it).
