Vic, if you have a full-featured library, with microfilmed back
issues, you probably also have the Readers' Guide available...
Finding a specific construction article like this might be a
little hard through the RG indices, but it *would* direct you
to annual or longer-period index of articles in the particular
magazine...

Also, be prepared to find the project uses these wierd
glass-enclosed high voltage FETs, with little lamps inside!  :{)

Actually, if you find some good ones, why don't you post the
particulars back to the Net? I'm sure a number of us would
be interested, if only for historical value.
