  Francisco,

  I am sorry, but book is no longer 'in print'.  We went thru multiple releases/editions of the book, enhancing each with new ideas and information such as YS engine troubleshooting and radio technology information.  There is also a  limit to new information becoming avail to create enough additional material for a new edition.  

  As you can imagine there is a limited demand for this type book and the printing costs are such that we had to print several hundred at a time to get any type of reasonable unit cost. As Bruce has stated, this was a work of 'love' with work being the operative word there.  It was not intended to be nor was it a profitable venture (by a far stretch). 

  If anyone has any info on a place or a technology that would make smaller runs more cost effective we would intertain printing them on demand, however, the last books were sold just recently.  Sorry.

  Don Atwood
