I have picked up a couple of volumes at swap meets and garage sales. I am always looking for more in used book stores. At one time, I saw an entire set, practically unopened as far as I could tell, in a reference bookshelf of a US Navy electronics school. I also look for older versions of Bowditch's Navigator, which is used as a text at Annapolis, and which gets updates every few years to keep up with the newer equipment. And I stumbled into a complete set of the US Army's official history of WWII. Unfortunately, it was in Lawton, OK, so I only bought one volume to take home in my luggage.

I have them all, collected over the years, but a motley collection of conditions and a few of the smaller, grey-cover versions. Fascinating anyhow. I read them all when I was a summer worker at LSUNO (microwave spectroscopy, 80 cents an hour) where they had the whole set in the library. I went to a couple of used-book stores in Cambridge, a 5 minute walk from the original RadLab, and they'd never heard of it. Try Amazon or ebay. Morison's official history of the US Navy in WWII can be had in prime condition, 15 vols, affordable. A good, long read. John

I'm sort of surprised that the echo is that wide--it ought to be dying off in less than 10 ms, compared with a total delay of 2.5 seconds.
