Vacuum Tube Valley
« on: June 26, 2016, 09:23:04 am »
Here's a collection of e-magazines that contains a lot of interesting info about tubes. Might make some good late night reading...

And here's a listing of the contents of the magazines...

A schematic, layout, and hi-rez pics are very useful for troubleshooting your amp. Don't wait to be asked. JUST DO IT!

Huge thanks for finding these!

I'd been looking for these since getting VTV #15 when it was new on the stands, and then never seeing the magazine again. And with the editor's death, it seemed like finding back issues was impossible.

The VTV pdf's are all uploaded into the library

They are in the Books folder with the Radiotron manuals

Here's that link

You may want to include VTV00.pdf attached in original post. It's like a table of contents for all the volumes.

Note also that VTV12-20 are also appearing listed on the main schematic page.

Just wanted to give you a head's up in case they are taking up double-space for you.
