Found this from a post on the Australian vintage radio forum http://vintage-radio.com.au/default.asp?f=1&th=592

Never heard of that later edition of the 1953 Radiotron Designer's Handbook, which
I do have. Thanks for posting, will be checking the differences (eventually...).

Thanks. I saved it and put it on my reading list right after "Boy's First Book of Electricity." Actually, I think there's a comma error on page 1,046.
