reorganization of the UK publications section, the
professional engineering section of the site is being
reorganized into more concise sections for Broadcast
Engineering, General Engineering with Broadcast Ties,

Publications in the engineering / electronics field.
It will take a few days to make this transition, so

UK Search |
After about 50 hours of non-stop work, much of the
newly reorganized and better categorized search for
all the UK publications is working. A few minor
touches remain to do. Let us know of any glitches or
errors!
Over 1.2 million pages of information about radio,
electronics, music and broadcasting in the UK is now
much easier to search.
We have made the searches work at various degrees of
granularity, from a total UK search to subsets and
lots more individual titles now searchable. |
9-22-19 |
UK Search |
Long overdue: the size of the UK collections of books
and periodicals warrants a separate search for all of
them. This is being created now, with sections for
Early Technology, Post-WW II Technology, Music
Publications, Miscellaneous and Books, The BBC and
Broadcasting, Ham and Shortwave and Individual Company
Journals. This will take many days to do as it
involves recreating all the search files and moving
them onto the server. So if some UK searches do not
work, try a day or two later. (You can test it by
clicking the link... but it is incomplete) |

THANKS! |
My thanks to the group of site users who on a daily
basis verify and check my work. There is a lengthy set
of steps between receiving a publication to scanning
it, converting to a PDF, making it searchable and
creating its place on a page on the site. These
contributors find mistakes, discover missing pages,
correct my terrible spelling and often offer marvelous
suggestions. Without these fine folks, the site would
be nowhere as usable or reliable. Let's hear a round
of applause for all of them! |
