Sorry for that guys. Just got an email from Gregg saying
the folder asks for a password, my mistake as I was protecting
the root folder not the RDH4 one.

It would be nice if you d/l to leave a thank you note to Gregg
for making this book available ( and whoever took the time
to scan that huge book ).

Book is here : http://www.oldradioz.com/manuals/rdh4

A healthy and happy Christmas full of surprises ( good ones ) to you and
yours !

Syl

Happy Holidays Syl! :-)))))))))

Thank you for making this available. I have the paper version and now
have the ability to carry it with me on my laptop.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all!

I don't know who scanned it originally, but it is the files from the CD
that Antique Audio Supply sells.
....I was/still is converting this to digital text, admittedly at a
sluggardly rate. Some of the earlier chapters were basically by-hand as
OCR software will simply not read complex symbols or Greek characters. I
got a new computer setup now, with dual screens (!), and am getting back
into working on it. It would have been grand to have it done in time for
the tube's 100th/books 50th anniversary, but for free, there was no way
I was gonna make that happen. Should go faster now.... I'm in chapter
10, p 439 as of today. I don't have much to show for it all yet because
what I am doing is converting the text to a Word file, and then later
the layout will need to be done in InDesign for conversion to PDF-but
the layout work will go very fast, by far the most work is setting up
all teh test and MATH CHARACTERS properly. Word-processing programs
can't do good enough layout for the math formulas, and I won't use
Word's formula builder plugin-thing. It is a pain to use and I don't
know that it will embed in a PDF properly. I had planned a "horizontal"
layout for PC screens as well as reproducing the book's original layout,
but I am seeing that many of the illustrations need help as well,
especially those with small cursive lettering.... I will say that what
I have planned is one big file, with both the table of contents and the
index actively linked, and the text conversion will allow fulltext
searches. ----- Also, there's a number of scanning errors in that CD
version, that you need the book to really view. The biggest one yet is
in chapter 6 "Mathematics", bottom of page 267 is chopped off, and they
put the bottom of page 266 on instead. Other than that, a couple
instances of doubled letters, but not a lot of errors really. Mostly
inconsistent editing.

Whose copyright problems?.... I was not doing mine for money so much,
just because I did not like the current version. When/if it gets
completed, what happens to it remains to be seen.

Is the Porter CD the same (essentially) as the Audio Express CD? That
is, page-scans, instead of actual text? Part of the reason I had chosen
to bother was that I didn't know of any similar version in existence...
