Radiophile Publications
Hi
I have been on the site Radiophile Publications and I just want to be a little careful. I have selected the publications that I want and gone to checkout but there appears to be nowhere to go to pay apart from the 4 "Icons" at the bottom, I clicked on the one for Visa and it came up and wants all my card details. But, there is nothing there that says this page is anything to do with Radiophile Publications. Has anyone bought anything from Radiophile Publications and come across this before? Regards Bill |

Re: Radiophile Publications
It does say that the website is closed and to contact Jo Miller for back issues.
https://www.radiophile.co.uk/ When the website was active you'd put goods in your basket and then checkout.

Re: Radiophile Publications
2 years on, surely the best tribute to Chas would be if the pdf's were put in the public
domain, say at worldradiohistory. |

Re: Radiophile Publications
The bottom of the website pages has a Worldpay logo so if you are being taken there to pay then that’s correct and logical. Having said that I have never ordered so I don’t know what the payment arrangements were previously.

Part of what made the Radiophile so good was Jo's artwork and she is still very much with us and entitled to earn a crust from her hard work. Cheers Mike T

Re: Radiophile Publications
I had not realised the commercial interest was ongoing.
In which case, I certainly would consider buying multiple editions if issued on DVD. |

Re: Radiophile Publications
Nobody I am aware of able to put on a dvd though. Still, an excellent idea if there was and sure plenty would like it.

Re: Radiophile Publications
I had the intention of asking Jo Miller if this would be something of interest i.e. assisting with the production of a DVD that could be purchased containing all Radiophile issues to help preserve the work that Chas had painstaking produced over many years and provided her with a little extra income. The problem may not be "pdfing" any of the radiophiles that exist from electronic form already but the numbers that might need to be scanned from paper copies and converted because they don't . With lock down , the cancellation of the Radiophile auctions and the fact at the time it had not been that long since the passing of Chas, I did not get the convenient moment that one needs to chat with her over what might have been a sensitive issue. Hoping that they do get preserved though.
