Noticed you have some scans of Electronics Australia on your site.

 

I have heaps of old electronics magazines - but no scanner.

I wonder if any of them would cover 2650-related stuff, what time period are they from?

1977 to about 1990, i think. There's a few issues outside of that range.

Yes, some in that range (70s to early 80s) might be relevant.
