Are there any present-day publications alike?

It would be nice to keep here a collection of links to high quality publications, old or new.
Please share any other materials you feel worthy to be known by others.

Let's not forget the Radiation Lab at MIT

https://www.jlab.org/info_resources/mitseries

I downloaded all 28 volumes yesterday.

There should be a sticky topic of archives like these.

There is a huge trove of US Army ECOM (now CECOM)  technical reports that are available for the asking.  But there's not a permanent website.  I stumbled across it while researching multiband dipoles.  At present you submit a request, a very nice gentleman transfers them to a Army drop box site where you download them. He sent me a  spreadsheet of reports, but it's too large to upload :-(    It's just under 2 MB.

There is also this:

Found this on another thread here, on EEBblog, some work of Bob Pease:
http://www.ti.com/ww/en/bobpease/assets/www-national-com_rap.pdf broken link today 2021-10-09
https://cb.wunderkis.de/wk-pub/www-national-com_rap.pdf broken link today 2021-10-09

Same filename, IDK if the broken links were to the same content, I hope so:

From EEVblog, user JBeale

Go to page  https://ntrs.nasa.gov/advSearch.jsp

and search for NASA Tech Briefs.  It should return pdf files, like this one:

Are there any present-day publications alike?

There is the "News" (or "Neues" in German) magazine by Rohde & Schwarz, which is worth reading. It has a focus on RF, but also covers other topics.

Lots of old issues of Electronics Australia at archive.org, looks like they are organised by year "Electronics Australia 19nn".

Electronics Australia April 1989 has some interesting history.
50 year anniversary issue has reprint of the April 1939 edition. Page 80 has an article on the next 50 years.

Poking around this...found XINU!  Totally forgot about it.  We ran that on our VAX back in 1984.  Time flies.
