Title: Downloadable magazines (Free)
Post by: Stephen Rainsbury on March 22, 2023, 17:06
I just discovered that you can download these magazines free. 

Hackspace has plenty of interesting electronics based articles, some of which might be directly useful, bit I found plenty of interest in each edition. 

MagPi is more specialist but I still found it interesting as I have just bought a Pico system, which I think could eventually replace my PIC and Arduino kit.

I just tried to download one of the MagPi ones but went round in a loop.  To download one for free I had first to subscribe to the newsletter, but when I had done this I went back to the website to get my free download and the "download for free" button had disappeared. Am I missing something?

That sounds odd.
I did donate a few quid, but when I went back I clicked on "Issues" on the top bar, found the one I wanted, clicked on "free download" and voila, the button appeared.

It won't work if you have popups or ads blocked because you won't see the file and location options..
