Kalmbach sells digital copies of 'Telescope Making' magazine from 
their web site, at $5. an issue.  But they are heavily jpg'd, to 
reduce the file size to about 5 megs per issue.  The text is usually 
legible but the illustrations are very bad.  One of the worst 
digitizations of a periodical, that I've seen.
Now I see they are selling TM, and Deep Sky, and Astronomy magazine, 
on a dvd, for $150.

Has anyone purchased this?  Can you tell us what is the file size of 
the TM's, or of a single page if that's how they load?  Or a note 
about the scan quality?
Thanks
Peter Abrahams
