[QuadList] Broadcast Engineering

[Pat McGowan]

Or the CE's who would plant a blind ad and then call in one of their guys who had replied?
Have read every month since 1967. Too bad it's going to be gone, but had already decided not to renew. No longer a BROADCAST publication, just another IT journal.
