Folks,,, we have extras on these... for trade or?

there are two hard cover series... the orig maroon ones and the smaller
Boston technical publishers in grey binding... we have some of each... I
have never seen a complete set of the Dover paperbacks but perhaps a set
exists out there somewhere.. Indeed this is the best set of
references..... for radar and microwaves.
we think they are so profound we have 2 sets for the museum complete.

we either need to build a third set or let these may extras find a home.

we could use an extra index or an extra computing devices or loran or the
magnetron one.

Of course we will trade for anything and everything that would be of
benefit to the museum look at www.smecc.org and see the areas of
technology the museum embraces....
