Slow Scan Television Handbook 1972

Hi guys, found on Internet Archive. Quite interesting book with popular SSTV circuits and a good explanation of analog circuits.

Authors: Ralph Taggart WB8DQT, Don C. Miller W9NTP

Thanks for uploading that SSTV publication, not seen that version before though the authors names are very familiar from the early days of SSTV. Indeed (Dr.) Ralph Taggart has posted a few times within this forum.

Just something like this has awoken my desire to plug in the soldering iron! Though many of the parts are now obsolete but can be replaced with modern parts and/or techniques....how things (and I) have changed in 53 years! I was just 16 when that was pubished! Yes, I'm coming up on my "Three score and ten" next February!
