Folks - Let's take the Handbook discussion off list in the interest of keeping list volume under control. 73, Eric List Moderator --- www.elecraft.com On 9/27/2011 10:23 AM, Sandy wrote: > The reasons why I don't get a "Handbook" every year are simple. > > __ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
Re: [Elecraft] ARRL Handbook special - Limited quantities
The reasons why I don't get a "Handbook" every year are simple. First they changed to a much harder to handle frontal size! This adds to the BIG liability they insist on keeping, which I list as my second reason for not buying one every year: the paper stock is much too heavy! This makes the whole book not as handy as it used to be! The third reason is the price has gotten astronomical! I would break it into two different "sections". One that does most of the theory and design work, components specs., semiconductor information, etc. Another "section" that would describe "projects" (as they call it now!) This would be small gadgets to complete transmitters and "do it yourself" gear and antennas. Each volume small enough to easily carry and use, especially for us "older amateurs" who don't work out and develop the muscle to handle these heavy manuals! 73, Sandy W5TVW -Original Message- From: Jim McCook Sent: Tuesday, September 27, 2011 10:17 AM To: Elecraft Reflector Subject: Re: [Elecraft] ARRL Handbook special - Limited quantities Eric, Next time I order a ARRL handbook, it will be AFTER they finally produce it in two separate volumes. My 5 pound 2010 version is far, far too unwieldy to use in most cases. I speak for many friends who stopped ordering because it got too heavy. I think they are finally getting the message, according to the receptionist at ARRL. 73, Jim W6YA __ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html - No virus found in this message.
