Bell System Technical Journals now online

Alcatel-Lucent has made the complete set of the Bell System Technical Journal, 1922-1983, available online at:

http://bstj.bell-labs.com/

The few I've looked at so far have been quite large pdf files, so a high speed connection is recommended!

The download quality of the files on the early 500 sets is better than the copies we found previously.  The BSTJ articles include:

51/01    BSTJ            "The Ring Armature Telephone Receiver," p 110
51/04    BSTJ            "75 Years of the Telephone," p215
51/04    BSTJ            "An Improved Telephone Set" (500), p 239

53/05    BSTJ            "An Improved Circuit for the Telephone Set" (425B net), p 611

A related post from the TCI List...

ITT Electrical Communication (in English) from Vol. 1 in 1922 to Vol. 41 in 1966 is available on this Spanish site.  Other publications in Spanish are also available.

It will be interesting to compare this with the WE documents.
