No, as far as I know. Its purely Australian based. In the emails I've had with the editor he's very pro Australia for content at this time.

I believe they are sending out the subscriber editions, so hopefully people should start to see their copies arrive soon.

Well, I decided to give it a go.
The email confirming my subscription arrived in very quick time so that alone puts it above other offerings.

Can't stand web editions so it's hard copy for me.

Yeah Clockmanfr I have a collection of old TV's, radios, CRO's and other test gear. We have a big swap meet here once a year, great place to pick up "old" stuff.

I'm with you Tassy, I like hard copies. I enjoy flicking through the pages, the smell of ink and paper. And like a lot of people, I have copies of old electronics magazines going back decades, and they make good reading even today, nostalgia. A tablet or computer screen will never replace paper and ink for me.

:-(
Mine hasnt arrived yet, I got the first issue in paper, but the rest will be electronic
I miss my old paper books, but I sold off most of mine when I moved up north (I had a full room dedicated to my books, I had the advantage of a mate owned a secondhand bookstore, any that were too poor to put on sale (missing covers, torn or discoloured pages etc I got instead- when I moved the collection was over two tonnes! measured it!

since then lived in a caravan, so apart from a few treasured papers, my collection has had to be electronic, of necessity
