There were about a dozen or so folks present. As an educational handout to the group, I wrote a small booklet (some 50 or so pages) that had a fairly complete history of the topic from about 1917 to wwII. As an addendum to this handout, there were selected copies of historically important articles ranging from some of the early radio handbooks to tube sheets to several of the classic articles from QST by Ross Hull, et al, on the technical aspects of making the classic ``1929 style'' Hartley oscillator transmitter that formed the basis form many amateur stations of that era. Lately, I have been revising the booklet, and updating it to include a lot of additional information that I have come across over the years since that original talk. I expect that a few of the fellows may want a copy of the updated material and additional notes and reprints that I have found. Although I really don't ever expect to actually publish this thing, because the costs would be prohibitive, I would like to be able to xerox a copy or two for scholarly use for friends. Since the articles attached to the end of the thing are very difficult to find, in ordinary channels, unless one has a very well stocked research library handy (fortunately I do here at NCSU, and among several collector friends), I would like also to be able to make copies of those, again, for scholarly use. To this end, I would like to formally request permission from the ARRL to make a few copies of selected QST articles and include them with my work. To accomplish this, what should I formally do, through your office, and what official notice needs to be included in my work, to indicate your permission to use the material. I would expect that something like: ``Articles from QST reprinted by permission of the American Radio Relay League (ARRL).'' would be required. Thanks, and best 73 TU SU SK DE NA4G Robert D. Keys rdkeys@csemail.cropsci.ncsu.edu Lori Weinberg, Mark Wilson, Publications Manager American Radio Relay League, 225 Main Street, Newington, CT 06111-1494. Dear Lori and Mark: Back in 1993, I requested and was granted permission to use several early QST articles in a historical radio work that I was writing for use by interested local hams in our club's Homebrew SIG. That went well, and was well received. Thank you for your permission to use those articles. Lately, there has been some interest, amongst a group of radio history buffs and constructors, known as the Glowbugs, a group interested in learning about the history and development and practical application of vacuum tube electronics in amateur radio, in using some of these articles as a basis for building/testing/learning about early receivers and transmitters. This group meets via the internet as a mailing list of about 200 individuals. Out of these 200, perhaps some 25 or so are interested in actually building and testing such early equipment. It would be of benefit to me or them/us, collectively, to be able to use about half a dozen or so of the historically more important articles that have appeared in QST, for our building/testing/discussions on the topic. Of particular interest would be classic articles such as the John Reinartz regen receiver article in 1922, the 1928/29 articles on receivers and transmitters (the ``1929'' style amateur station series put together by the ARRL Technical Department under the able direction of the well known Ross Hull), several of the articles made famous by the other well known Technical Department staffer, George Grammer, in the 30's, and then one or two after the war when the last general use of such equipment was made, and the transition to the classic novice style single tuber rig began. My/our(the Glowbugs) use of these articles should fall under the scholarly use category, as I interpret such matters. But, I feel that it is appropriate to obtain express permission, and credit/cite ``Reprinted, [issue date], courtesy QST'', as I had done earlier in previous works. To this end, I would like to formally request permission from the ARRL to make a few copies of selected early QST articles, as covered above, for my/our(the Glowbugs) use in our discussions/building/learning about early radio. Thank you for your consideration in this matter. Sincerely, Robert D. Keys/NA4G rdkeys@csemail.cropsci.ncsu.edu p.s. Two other things that might be of interest to other amateur radio operators..... 1) a short note in QST about the Glowbugs, and how interested members of the amateur community may join in on our discussions and on-the-air nets, and 2) the articles that I put together back in 1993 are in electronic PostScript format which might be worth archiving in the ARRL's on-line archives somewhere, were interested (I would be happy to forward copies via email if so interested).

Thanks for your help. 73 Paul N6EV ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Dear Maty, Back on November 6th, you, on the behalf of the ARRL, graciously gave our internet "Glowbugs" group permission to make a few copies of select historical technical articles from early QST magazines (ref: attached Email below from yourself to Robert Keys, NA4G on 11/6/96). Since that time, interest and excitement has grown in our group about constructing some modern day versions of the simple 40s/50/60s style transmitters and receivers as depicted in the period QST magazines and "The Radio Amateur's Handbooks". Many in our group have wanted to share their favorite tube gear construction articles and schematics from issues of QST and the "Handbook" with others within the group. With the relative rarety of some of these issues and books it is essential that we pool our archive resources to further our charter (ie., the building/testing/learning about early receivers and transmitters). After reviewing the initial grant of permission that you extended our group last month, I thought it would be appropriate to formally request expansion of that permission to include various tube gear construction articles and schematics from later editions of QST and add permission to include construction articles and schematics from the "Handbook". In each case, we would have the proper "reprinted with permission from [issue date] QST (or Handbook)". Again, thank you for the initial grant of permission, and consideration of our request.

Since that time, interest and excitement has grown in our group about constructing some modern day versions of the simple 40s/50/60s style transmitters and receivers as depicted in the period QST magazines and "The Radio Amateur's Handbooks". Many in our group have wanted to share their favorite tube gear construction articles and schematics from issues of QST and the "Handbook" with others within the group. With the relative rarety of some of these issues and books it is essential that we pool our archive resources to further our charter (ie., the building/testing/learning about early receivers and transmitters). After reviewing the initial grant of permission that you extended our group last month, I thought it would be appropriate to formally request expansion of that permission to include various tube gear construction articles and schematics from later editions of QST and add permission to include construction articles and schematics from the "Handbook". In each case, we would have the proper "reprinted with permission from [issue date] QST (or Handbook)". Again, thank you for the initial grant of permission, and consideration of our request.
