Hi,

Here is an exciting update from Jackie on our efforts in improving and expanding our on-line book sales on Amazon.com and Google.

We have also just implemented a similar, but smaller in scale, system on our own Web site. For an example:

The ARRL Operating Manual <http://www.amazon.com/ARRL-Operating-Manual-Radio-Amateurs/dp/087259109 3/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1225390007&sr=8-1> is now part of the search in the book tool on Amazon. If you click on the book it will allow you to search inside. It's pretty neat.

The following books were just uploaded and should be available to search inside shortly.

The ARRL Ham Radio License Manual

The ARRL General Class License Manual

The ARRL Extra Class License Manual

Emergency Power for Radio Communications

ARRL's VHF Digital Handbook

ARRL's HF Digital Handbook

ARRL's Low Power Communications

Once I receive PDFs for The Handbook and The Antenna Book, those will be added as well.

All the same books have been uploaded to the Google Search tool, it just takes much longer to process.

Thanks, Jackie
