QST Product Reviews 1/76 thru 4/92 QST - Part 1 of 3

I thought that this information would be of such universal appeal that
I am taking the liberty of doing a 3 part posting. I do apologize for
the length.

Back issues or reprints are available from ARRL Headquarters. 

Contact: bdicosim%arrlhq.UUCP@uhasun.hartford.edu (Technical Dept. Secretary) 
for reprints.

Contact: Publication Sales or email to 2155052@mcimail.com for reprints.

These fairly recent QSTs are probably available to you locally. Inquire of
your local ham club, local library, or with local amateurs on HF or your
local repeaters. You can probably get them faster and cheaper (free) that
way.
