1. On the Collection of Amateur Radio Periodicals

一、关于业余无线电珍贵刊物集锦

The main content of this digital collection consists of magazines related to amateur radio published during the Republican period of China. Among these, the earliest is The Radio Monthly, published in June 1928 by the [Radio Equipment Factory in Shanghai of the Communications Department of the Ministry of Transport of the Nationalist Government]. Although only four issues were collected, the magazine contains valuable information, including the allocation of international frequencies and call signs by the International Telegraph Union (the predecessor of the International Telecommunication Union), China’s radio management regulations at the time, the products and facilities of this “government-owned factory,” as well as the equipment, including antennas, used by the [Central Broadcasting Station of the Nationalist Party Headquarters]. Another noteworthy publication is Electric Intelligence, the bulletin of the [Ministry of Transport’s Telecommunications School], published in 1930. Although only two pages have been preserved, they contain statistics on the numbers of government radio stations and wired telephones in various provinces and cities. These records are crucial references for studying the radio spectrum and call signs worldwide in the 1920s, as well as China’s radio regulations, the usage of radio stations and telephones, and the state of its radio manufacturing industry and technological development during that period.

这套光盘资料的主要部分是我国民国时期出版的部分与业余无线电有关的杂志， 在这些资料中最早的是1928年6月由国民政府交通部通信处驻沪无线电机制造厂出版发行的《无线电月报》，虽然只收集到4期，但ITU的前身“国际电报联盟”当时对国际频率、呼号的划分、我国当时的无线电管理条例和出版这个刊物的当时“国企”的部分产品、厂房、国民党中央党部广播电台的设备、天线等都在其中，还有1930年国民政府交通部电讯学校校刊《电讯》，虽然只有区区两页，但却有当时我国政府机构使用无线电台和各省、市使用有线话机数量的统计，这是研究1920年代世界上对无线电频谱、呼号使用和我国无 线电管理、无线电台和电话使用、无线电制造业及其水平等状况的重要依据。

The subsequent publications date to the 1930s and 1940s. The two major radio magazines in China, The China Radio and Popular Radio Magazine, have been fully collected. The China Radio was first published in 1933 by AMA (Amateurs Home), a company named after the first three letters of the English word “amateur.” Popular Radio Magazine was first published in 1935 by the [Zhongyong Radio Equipment Factory]. These two magazines featured a large number of technical articles on radio, many of which were remarkably “forward-looking.” They also included extensive DIY projects and experience-sharing contributions from the HAMs. Articles by notable veteran amateur radio operators—such as Qian Gaoyun (BA1KY), Xu Yujia (BA4CH), Zhu Tianfu (BA6QB), Feng Guoxiang (BA4AE), and /Li Ouru (Li Shilin, BA4ASL)—who became active again after the reopening of individual amateur radio stations in 1992, can all be found in these magazines. Before the amateur radio organizations in China had their formal publications, these two magazines served as platforms for Chinese amateur radio enthusiasts to acquire knowledge, exchange updates, and discuss organizational matters. Even later, when the [Wartime Service Corps] and the [Amateur Radio Association of China] launched their official journals, they initially relied on these two magazines for printing assistance.

年代稍后的就是在1930、1940年代，我国的两个主要无线电刊物《中国无线电》、《实用无线电》，已全部收齐。《中国无线电》为取名于英文业余爱好者amateur字头“AMA”的亚美无线电股份有限公司 (亚美公司)于1933年创刊，《实用无线电》是中庸无线电机厂于1935年创刊。这两本杂志登有大量无线电技术文章，很多内容十分“前瞻”，还有大量爱好者们的DIY作品和经验介绍；1992年恢复开放个人业余电台后再次活跃起来的著名老业余无线电家如BA1KY/钱皋韵、BA4CH/许毓嘉、BA6QB/朱天赋、BA4AE/冯国祥、BA4ASL/李欧儒（李石麟）等当年的文章都能在这两个杂志上找到。在我国业余无线电组织正式出版会刊前，这两个刊物还是当时中国业余无线爱好者们学习知识、交流情况、讨论会务的园地。就是后来的战时服务团和中国业余无线电协会有了自己的正式会刊，开始时也都由他们帮助印刷的。

In The China Radio, we can find records of the renowned Su brothers—Su Zuguo (C1STK) and Su Zugui—and the operation of their amateur (experimental) spark-gap transmitter radio station with the call sign 1AF in the early 1920s. There is also an autobiographical article by Jiang Zongheng (X2AY/AC2AY/XU6AY), who in 1923 became the first Chinese amateur radio operator to use a personal call sign for amateur transmissions. Additionally, the magazine features introductions and photographs of the station Amateurs Home established by AMA—AMA was owned by the Su family. In Popular Radio Magazine, we can see detailed depictions of many HAMs who were active during the 1930s. For example, it showcases the equipment, WAC (Worked All Continents) achievements, and QSL wall of Gao Zhenyang (XU7UK), who later served as the director of the Fujian Metallurgy Bureau after the liberation. It also includes accounts of him carrying radio equipment to join anti-Japanese guerrilla forces. The magazine’s “HAM Profiles” column provides a comprehensive view of the HAMs through their portraits, their transceivers, and other details. Another fascinating feature in Popular Radio Magazine is a detailed account of how Yenching University’s radio enthusiasts trained in Morse code in the wake of the December 9th Movement, preparing themselves to serve the nation whenever needed. The magazine’s 10th-anniversary celebration included a series of activities that vividly reflected the spirit of HAMs at the time, as well as the social and cultural values of the era.

在《中国无线电》上我们还可以看到著名业余家苏氏昆仲—苏祖国C1STK、苏祖圭在1920 年代初，呼号为1AF 的火花发射机业余（实验）电台的情况、1923 年我国最早以个人业余电台呼号进行业余发射的蒋宗衡X2AY/AC2AY/XU6AY前辈的自述文章， 以及刊物发行者亚美公司所设“AMATEURS HOME—业余无线电爱好者之家” 的介绍和照片，亚美公司正是苏家的产业。在《实用无线电》上，我们可以看到众多活跃在1930 年代业余天空中爱好者们的真实情况写照，包括解放后任福建冶金厅长的高振洋/XU7UK当时用的设备、WAC情况、QSL墙以及携带机器奔赴抗日游击队的详细介绍，尤其是杂志的“业余群像”专栏，爱好者的小照、收发信机与相关资料等都能一览无余。在《实用无线电》上还可看到“一二九”运动期间，燕京大学无线电爱好者们如何在游行后，积极进行莫尔斯电码训练，时刻准备为国效力的详细介绍，该刊物10周年大庆，推出系列活动，生动地反映了当年HAM们的精神风貌、社会的人文状态和价值取向。

The two magazines mentioned above played a highly significant historical role in popularizing radio knowledge, cultivating Chinese radio talent, as well as promoting and advancing amateur radio activities in China.

上述两本杂志在普及无线电知识、培养中国无线电人才队伍、宣传和推动我国业余无线电活动等方面起到了非常积极的历史作用。

This section of the digital collection also contains bulletins of amateur radio organizations in various periods before the liberation. These include: QSP, the bulletin of the first amateur radio organization founded by Chinese nationals, the China Amateur Radio Union (CARU), published in 1932; QSL, the bulletin of the [Amateur Radio Wartime Service Corps], published in 1938; and publications of the later [Chinese Amateur Radio League] (CARL), such as The Radio World, [CQ Gazette], as well as its Nanchang chapter’s Electric Intelligence. These bulletins primarily featured updates on organizational affairs, HAM activities, and technical discussions and exchanges. They serve as vivid historical records documenting the development of amateur radio activities in China. Through these publications, we can also see the dedication of earlier generations of amateur radio enthusiasts to advancing radio technology, their selfless contributions to society, their patriotic commitment during the Japanese invasion and national crisis, as well as their sprit and demeanor in upholding HAM principles.

在这部分光盘资料中还收集了我国解放前各时期业余无线电组织的会刊。包括：第一个由国人组织的业余无线电团体“中华业余无线电社（CARU）” 1932年出版的会刊《QSP》，1938 年“业余无线电人员战时服务团”出版的团刊《QSL》以及后来“中国业余无线电协会 CARL”的会刊《无线电世界》、《CQ协刊》及其南昌分会的会刊《电讯》等。这些会刊主要刊登会务、HAM活动情况、技术探讨及交流等。是记载中国业余无线电活动发展的鲜活史料。从这些会刊中也可以看到老一辈业余无线电家们对无线电技术的刻苦钻研、对社会无私的奉献，在日寇侵华、民族危亡关头的拳拳报国之心以及实践业余信条的精神与风采。

Other radio-related publications issued by early radio manufacturers or publishers have also been included. Although these materials are relatively scattered and each type is represented by only a limited number of issues, they provide authentic and reliable reflections of the state of China’s radio industry and technology in the 1930s and 1940s. Furthermore, some of the publishers themselves were radio enthusiasts, making these publications a valuable addition despite their fragmented nature.

早年间部分无线电厂商或出版社发行出版的其他无线电刊物也被收集，虽然比较杂散，每种的数量也不多，但也真实可靠地反映出我国20世纪三、四十年代无线电工业和技术的状况，何况有些出版者本身就是无线电爱好者，故不揣其另碎，也一并收进。

2. On the Appendix: Zhu Qiqing’s Memoirs

二、关于附录-朱其清回忆录

The appendix contains materials related to Mr. Zhu Qiqing 附录部分是与朱其清先生有关的一些资料。

Mr. Zhu Qiqing (XU4KT/C1KT) was a respected and cherished amateur radio activist who made significant contributions to the development of amateur radio in China. He was one of the key founders of the first amateur radio organization in China to gain recognition from government authorities and operate under the umbrella of a government agency. During the difficult conditions following the outbreak of the War of Resistance, he led this organization to continue its activities, contributing actively to the war effort. In 1940, he managed to re-register the organization with the Ministry of Social Affairs of the Nationalist Government, transitioning it into a civilian organization, which he continued to lead in carrying out vibrant activities. Particularly after the victory in the War of Resistance, amateur radio activities in China and CARL’s operations flourished with great vitality. Under his leadership, CARL joined the International Amateur Radio Union (IARU), achievements that were inseparable from his organizational guidance and pragmatic efforts. Unfortunately, this prosperity was short-lived. After 1950, due to the prevailing political climate, amateur radio activities came to a complete halt, and Zhu Qiqing himself was caught in a whirlpool of personal struggles from which he could not extricate himself.

朱其清先生（XU4KT/C1KT）是一位值得我们尊敬和怀念的业余无线电活动家，曾在我国业余无线电发展过程中作出了重大贡献。他是我国第一个得到政府当局认可并挂靠在政府机构下的业余无线电组织的主要创始人之一，在抗日战争爆发后的艰难条件下，他一直领导着这个组织坚持活动，为抗日战争作出积极贡献，1940年他又设法到民国政府的社会部将这个组织转登记为纯民间团体，继续领导大家积极开展活动。尤其是抗战胜利后我国的业余无线电活动和CARL的会务活动呈现出生机勃勃的繁荣景象，CARL还加入了国际业余无线电联盟，这些都与他的组织领导和务实工作分不开。可惜好景不长，1950年后缘于当时的政治形势，业余无线电活动全面停止，朱其清本人也被陷入了生活的漩涡而无力自拔。

This section includes a memoir written by veteran amateur radio operator Wang Chuanshan (BA1SS/C1SS), who once worked with Zhu Qiqing; a commemorative article by Zhu Qiqing’s daughter, Ms. Zhu Xiang, based on her recollections and available materials; excerpts from some of Zhu Qiqing’s works; his unpublished articles and handwritten letters; and an entry about him downloaded from the internet in recent years. For inclusion in this digital collection, some content requiring references to the periodicals section has been simplified by providing only the original publication titles and issue numbers, allowing readers to locate and access the full original information themselves. Additionally, readers may find further details about Zhu Qiqing’s amateur radio activities in other articles and images included in this collection.

这部分资料包括曾经和朱其清共事过的老业余无线电家王传善（BA1SS/C1SS）撰写的回忆文章，朱其清的女儿朱湘女士根据回忆和资料撰写的纪念文章，朱其清部分著作的片段，朱其清未发表过的文章和书信手稿，以及一则近年来从互联网下载的与朱其清有关的信息。收入光盘时，个别地方简化了需要引用刊物集锦的相关内容和图片，只给出它们的原载刊名和期号，以便读者自行查阅，获取更完整的原始信息。当然，读者也还可以从本套光盘收纳的其他杂志文章和图片中搜寻到更多关于朱其清当年从事业余无线电活动的情况。
