Australian and Overseas Publications
Laboratories staff regularly contributed articles to Australian and overseas professional and technical journals as well as presenting papers to learned societies. They also contributed as editors for many journals. Some publications contain references to the Research Laboratories in articles, investigations and equipment designed and built by the Laboratories. Search for “Research” or “Laboratories” in the files.
Other publications include Technical Training, Instruction, Policy, and Information Documents produced by the Postmaster Generals Department (PMG), Australian Post Office (APO) and Telecom Australia. Other miscellaneous and overseas publications.
Most publications referenced below have been scanned using sophisticated optical character recognition (OCR) software and saved as Adobe Acrobat PDF searchable image files. The following OCR limitations and other issues apply:
· Most text has been faithfully recognised, is searchable and can be selected and copied.
· Tables are recognised by the OCR software but not reproduced as tables in the PDF file.
· On rare occasions, columns are not recognised so text flows directly across the page. However, whenever this is observed during scanning, it is manually fixed.
· Hyphenated words have a space inserted at the hyphenation point.
· Images are well recognised but not de-screened. They can be extracted with a suitable PDF reader (e.g., IrfanView).
· Equations are recognised as part image and part text.
· Blank pages and “Notes” pages have been removed. In some instances, this may create skips in page numbering.
· Due to ageing, the paper on some early edition pages has developed a brown tinge on the edges or over the whole page and this is reproduced on the digital copy.
· Some pages show part of an adjacent page because of difficulty positioning an opened book on a flatbed scanner.
File sizes vary from 5 Mbytes to 26 Mbytes.
Thanks to Alan Hampel (AH), Simon Moorhead, Barry Young, Steve Beyer, Colin Pask (CP), Ron Lukin (RL) and others for various documents. Two letters at the listed name end denote who I obtained the document from. No letters mean I do not know or cannot remember.
The Telecommunications Journal of
Australia 1935 (first edition) to 1987
First produced by The Postal Electrical Society of Victoria. Later known as
The Telecommunication Society of Australia (TelSoc). Downloads of any TJA
journals and the articles therein are for private use. Request for republication of the articles
should be addressed to the Secretary, TelSoc.

Produced by the Postmaster Generals Department (PMG), Australian Post

Documents are listed in chronological order of the issue date if known. Many
have been reissued and the original date of publication is unknown.
Some documents have a document number. If one existed, it is prepended to the
listed document name.
Some files have been reissued with a different document number (e.g.,
Requirements for Trunk Circuits), but I have provided both documents.
The “ETP 0075 Electric Circuits. 1970” document has “Telecom Australia” and the
“golf clubs” logo on the front page. However, Telecom Australia did not come
into existence until 1975 so that is a mystery.
