Not to mention just how much they have to offer anyone who is into vintage hi-fi (even norman crowhurst did articles!), ham radio, music (bert whyte who later wrote for audio magazine), and advertising galore!
I think 50s era Radio & TV news is at the top of my list for best and most interesting magazine ever... maybe not all would agree but that's my personal opinion. I like it even better than Popular Mechanics when they actually told you how to do things.
