The principle activity of the Eddystone User Group was the publication of a newsletter to members six times per year. From 1990 to 2006 some 96 issues of the newsletter were produced. For the first half of its life. the newsletter was edited by its Founder Ted Moore G7AIR. From 1992 the editor has been Graeme Wormald G3GGL and from issue 61 (May 2000) it was renamed The Lighthouse. An early feature of the newsletter was the “featured set” whereby a particular Eddystone Receiver was described in some detail. Featured sets started to tail off after issue 70 as by then most sets had been covered. The collection of newsletters represents the greatest known written archive about Eddystone Radios. It was the wish of the Eddystone User Group Trust, that when it ceased to be a membership organisation, this information would be made available to all via the internet. We are deeply indebted to David Oakden who without complaint or recompense scanned each copy of the newsletter manually into Adobe PDF format. The versions available here to down load are compressed and still give readable copies, either on screen or when printed out. We are also deeply indebted to Anthony Richards who has also without complaint and recompense created indexes for each set of newsletters and also a master index covering all 96 issues. Without the efforts of these fine gentlemen we would not be able to make this information available to you.

SEARCHABLE INDEX

NEW Adobe PDF searchable indexes, prepared by Alan Ainslie, based on Anthony’s indexes. There are three indexes;

2. Index of EUG Newsletters 1-96 covering the GENERAL information (download 8Mb)
3. Index of EUG Newsletters 1-96 covering both SETS and GENERAL information (download 13Mb)

When you have downloaded the indexes on to your computer you can use the Adobe Search facility to find all the references to the set or event you are looking for.
