 Richard:
 
 Aside from the print issues of
 CQ and QST, and the professional journals from the IEEE and
 ACM, I get my technical information from the Internet. All
 the trade magazines, such as EDN and Electronic Design are
 available in digital format. I also get 2600 in digital
 format as well.
 
 I hate to
 say this because I actually used to write for an electronics
 trade magazine, but they are becoming less and less
 relevant.
 
 73!
