Notice that I did the intro "Welcome Newcomers" page for this issue. It was great fun to get articles from serious satellite chasers around the world, and have them published in 73. I did the HAMSATS column for 16 years as a form of AMSAT advertising. The credentials of the satellite-article authors in the Special issues were awesome. I am sure you will recognize the names and callsigns of most of the folks in the November 2001 issue. Wayne gave us (AMSAT) an open forum to tell the world outside what we were all about. There were multiple Special Satellite Issues. Can you find them all?

Very Cool! Now they are all out there for your reading pleasure, and education. Thanks to Wayne and the editorial staff, espeically Joyce Sawtelle, who worked with me to ensure that everything was as accurate as possible, and everyone got PAID... Thanks also to Vern Riportella WA2LQQ (SK) for talking me into writing the columns...

My friends over at The Internet Archive and Textfiles have given us an
early
Christmas present: every issue of Wayne Green's 73 Magazine ever
published,
for free. 73 Magazine was published from 1960 to 2003, and was full of
technical articles, news reports, ham ads, and the editorials of the
irrepressible Wayne Green, W2NSD.

Read 73 online, or download PDF files here:

Magazine articles were scanned, quality corrected, and index by an army of individuals, and collected together for Internet Archive by Jason Scott of
textfiles.org. See http://www.textfiles.com/hamradio/ for more ham radio
related collections.
