1979-1999  These bulletins, and earlier, are in paper format and a few of the more interesting ones may be scanned into PDF files as time permits.    There are about 140 newsletters of 12-20 pages each, and due to web host memory constraints, only a limited number of pages can be scanned and stored on-line.    Important:  Some of these PDF files are 700-800 kb each, so be very patient if you have a slow dial-up connection.

1998   Summer - AF2L obit      Fall - N2NS obit

1975   December - The first attempt at a combined  NJN-NJPN-NJSN  bulletin


1971-1975  Separate bulletins for NJN and NJPN were produced on mimeograph machines and most are not reproducible due to fading and bleed-thru.  A few samples are presented below.

1975 NJN    January      November - Includes 1975 Confab report 

1974 NJPN  August - by WA2SHT         December - by WA2DVE

1974 NJN    April - With bio of Bill Mumford W2CU, and a "History of NJN"     July - by WB2RKK(W2RQ)

1971 NJN   September - This is the oldest bulletin in the archives which is photo-scannable.  Interesting - complaints about low traffic volumes and missed sessions!   Includes the historic softball game at Newark Valley wherein NJ trounces NYS.
