Mimms has a column in "Modern Electronics"

He is also the editor of "Science PROBE!, The Amateur Scientist's Journal" .
This is a new quarterly magazine published by Gernsback (Radio-Electronics,
Popular Electronics).  

The second issue (the first one I've seen on a news stand) covers Hawaiian 
Volcanoes, Making a Van Leeuwenhouk style microscope, Neural Nets, 
Speleology (cave science), Home Weather Stations, Detecting meteors 
with meteor scattered radio signals, Computer Data Collection ... 

For subscriptions, check out a good news stand, or one of the other
magazines mentioned above for a postcard.
