of the status of this title. It's extremely doubtful, but possible,
they may issue C&D to the servers offering it. If you want it,

If they do, they won't bother anyone who has it if they don't
publicly distribute it. Copyright is challengeable if it exists at
all because it's been out for years and they did nothing.

What in the world are you babbling about?

OH! RADIO DATA HANDBOOK///

Do you figure Thomsen owns it because they bought some portion of RCA
Corporation?

If so WHO owns that part of Thomsen now?

Aren't copyrights for written materials from the early days 75 years
or something?

Are you going to make me search fro stuff I'm not gonna find a lot
about?

Tune in next time to As the Transformer Burns and find out!

Sorry, Radiotron Designer's Handbook, Fourth Edition.

In reality it's almost certainly public domain-almost certainly as in
almost certainly they really went to the moon or almost certainly
Marilyn Monroe met with some foul play. But a nut named Andrew McCoy,
alias Andre Jute, has wrecked our group with ****ing about how it
really is not public domain, so I have had to "settle the matter".

If you don't have the .pdf, you might want to download it now.

Thomson have nothing to do with the RDH4 copright; the thief Bret
Ludwig blowing smoke in your face. If you want to know why, come
follow the threads on RAT.

If they do, they won't bother anyone who has it if they don't

But you will know you're a thief, won't you?

One can only steal what can be stolen, and only what is owned can be
stolen. No one owns RDH 4. Not Newnes, not Audio Amateur Productions,
not Thunderfunk Amps, not Thomson, and very certainly not Andrew McCoy
d/b/a Andre Jute.

If any one did own it they would have issued a C&D by now. They have
not because they do not. They will not because they can not. At the
very least they would have allowed free distribution only with
attribution, which they have not asked for.

You are a liar, a thief, a mountebank, and probably a mattoid,
Andrew.

This comes down to, "We stole it so often, it is now ours."

When will you write to the Newnes imprint of Reed-Elseviers, Bratzi,
to dob in that little list of copyright thieves?

From Newnes at least you might get some kind of an answer. It could
even be more than just, Thanks, Dumbo, but we know.

What can be settled by writing to Thomson who have nothing to do with

And you will be a thief if you do. Bret Ludwig is a confessed thief
and a pimp for thieves.

You are quite a character! You claim the book is owned by Newnes yet
you claim it was stolen from YOU. Your "facts" just do not add up.


If it was indeed copyright the owner would have removed it by now ( if
they even cared).

Very precisely.

Companies like Newnes guard their property very well. They have full
time infringement monitoring and attorneys on retainer in every
country in the world worth bothering with. Anyone doubting that need
only put up a scanned book that IS copyright and they will find out.

The book is a work for hire from a company that no longer exists in
any tangible form. Like most of the classic RCA and GE tube manuals
and educational materials published before about 1962-64 the copyright
was not renewed at the time and because of US law and laws elsewhere
is effectively out of copyright. Andre's opinions not withstanding are
irrelevant.

The fact that the book was reprinted is irrelevant. In fact, I
suspect Newnes never would have bothered reprinting it if it were
subject to copyright. It is very difficult for third parties to
license old books in most cases because tracking down everyone is a
hassle and because most publishing houses in New York refuse to talk
to anyone without a lot of money-they just can't be bothered.

Andre(w) is a liar, a mountebank, and a ****head. It's likely he
molests koala bears and craps in his neighbors' hydrangea bushes as
well, but this as yet unproven.

So, he camps with Arny. It also explains the state
of Arny's bushes. And they are brown bears, not Koalas.
