Technically excellent, with some very unusual designs, it contains about 125 schematics; all may be built with a moderate level of experience. There is also a (now dated) countermeasures section which was contributed by me.
This book was never easy to purchase. The first printing had to be ordered directly from Winston, himself. This revised and expanded second edition was only sold briefly via the now shuttered Sheffield Electronics website. And, once in a looong while, a used dog-eared copy would show up on eBay to quickly sell in the $50.-$75. range. None have appeared there recently, however.
The picture of Winston's signature is from my copy of the book. Sadly, Winston is no longer with us to sign more of them.
"Now Hear This!" is a collector's item with historical significance, and a lucky find.
Long out-of-print, and thought to be no longer available, some "new, old stock" copies are available at amazon.com, for the very first time.
It is not known how many copies are available.
