I built my first radio in the 60s from an F.G. Rayer design in Hobbies annual, stumbling across PW a couple of months later. This mag was probably the main thing that drove me to electronics and a licence. 50-some years and numerous countries and tickets later I chanced to visit the Derby Radio Museum (thanks, Steve) and rediscovered PW. One printed issue later and I found the Pocket Mags app and here I am again.
I am thoroughly pleased with what I get for my buck and it’s an easy read for most.
