Semi-ancient magazines, almost free to a good home

I have a pile of Popular Electronics/Electronics Now/Poptronix from around 1996 through 2000 and a bit more. Not complete. Probably 10-15 pounds worth.



Just pay media mail/book rate shipping from zip 19004 and they're yours.



While some of the technology is dated, at least these have projects that don't all involve software! :)

Those days were in some ways a milestone for home construction - before you could buy whatever you want from China for far less than you could make it. Maplin in the UK produced some super in house kits then - some of which I still use. Notably a very decent low distortion signal generator and a wheatstone bridge continuity tester which gives a different 'tone' according to the resistance. Oh - and a solder station. All of which were good value compared to commercial products.
