Google Book Search announced today that it was posting scans of several magazines, including Popular Science and Popular Mechanics online.
I'm excited because it means that old radio articles in these magazines are available for viewing.
Try this: Go to http://books.google.com/advanced_book_search, and enter the words "crystal", "coil", and "condenser" in the search window. Check the "Full View Only" and "Magazines" buttons. It returns a bunch of magazine articles on crystal radio sets.
Now the next trick...To bookmark the article, you don't have to save that entire godawful URL it brings up. You can trim from the end of the URL to the "&pg=PAXXX" term. The rest is just for highlighting the search text in the article and stuff.
