Hi Frank,
When an option of ARRL membership was a CD received at the end of the year,
then I took that option. This was an economic choice as the CD contained
not only QST but NCJ (no interest) and QEX. I enjoyed reading the excellent
technical articles published in QEX.
Life here in the UK is considerably more expensive that in the USA. One
just has to compare the cost of housing and gasoline. It was a shock to our
American daughter-in-law when she moved to live in the UK.
The ARRL closed the CD option and now I get the digital QST only.
I cited 13 sources in the bibliography and 114 sources in my reference
list.. My earliest QST reference was from 1916 - Tuska - The oscillating
Audion - when positive feedback was first being investigated. (I have a
copy of Black's book among the pile here). Access to patents, bound copies
of the journal of the IEE proc.IRE etc. helped enormously.
Now we must leave the NanoVNA forum for more relevant correspondence.

All,
Just know that *soon* all ARRL members will have electronic access to QEX
and NCJ issues via the ARRL.org website, although print issues will still
require a subscription.
And, be aware that there IS the Fair Use provision in the copyright law.
You do NOT need permission to quote a copyrighted work with source citation
for limited and reasonable amount. Others have cited the appropriate legal
source. I suspect Phil, that in your large dissertation (mine was two
volumes), you quoted numerous sources with citation, no?
