WIA callbooks in electronic format
#1
Hi all,

I see so many callsigns that have been re-allocated, many of which had owners back in the 60's, 70's and 80's that I was personally acquainted with.  Subsequently I am looking for a few WIA callbooks in electronic format to use with a Windows application I am working on to provide some historical licensee details of VK callsigns from bygone years.

The current licensee/owner data from the ACMA Public Register is on hand, plus the 2007 WIA callbook disc, plus a little bit more data extracted from the AR index courtesy VK6UU.  Ideally I would like a copy of other year's callbooks in PDF or text file format that I can then process further.   Manipulating that data into a useful format is my problem.

I do have some printed callbooks from back in the 60's and 70's (maybe 80's) but do not really have the time (or willingness) to scan each and every callbook's state page listings. 

There are no plans to sell anything as all of my software is always give-away, freely downloadable from my website at VK4ADC.COM. The data would be used in an application so only a small part of the contents would be available to anyone in particular and thus not (seemingly) be a cause copyright issues ( <10%).  Whether it even happens depends on what historical data I can access.

PM me if you can help out - or use the email address on the Contact Me page on the website at VK4ADC.COM ( https://vk4adc.com/web/index.php/contact-me )

Thanks

Doug
