Bill brought this up on Fri nite's chat.

Do you subscribe to and read any trade magazines?
If so, which ones?
(I get EC&M, NEC Digest, IAEI News, and just signed up for EC)

EC&M, EC, NEC digest.

I have learned alot of information from the magazines.
I even have my first EC&M issue DECEMBER 1995
and if i need to refresh on a certain subject i go back to the older issues and read. For the last 3-4 years i have slacked off and haven't kept the magazines.

Edward


Thanks
Edward

Russ, you can find the necdigest at www.nfpa.com under periodicals on their home page.
I get EC&M and NFPA Journal. Which leads me to wonder how many others are NFPA members?
