"Television and Consumer Electronics" and "Technology*Home", two of the dwindling number of magazines of interest to technophiles seem to have disappeared from the magazine shelves of W H Smith etc.
They regularly had articles on satellite receiver repairs and feedhunting (Roger Bunney since the early '60s, and who still has a column in Wotsat) and in the former's case TV repairs, that magazine first appearing in the 30's.
Technology*Home appeared to be a rival to T&CE after many of its regular contributors upped sticks after changes to T&CE's format (too many 'company reports', similar to the way TELESatellte has evolved).
Sad to see T&CE disappear, as I have subscribed to it since the late '50s when it was known as Practical Television, then just 'Television'.
