Australia's first news-stand wireless magazine?

[edit]

G'day Guys, I am uncomfortable with this statement "Australia's first news-stand wireless magazine". "Sea, Land and Air" commenced publication in 1918, almost 4 years before WW. While sales volume of the latter would have been much smaller as the number of wireless enthusiasts was greatly limited by licensing regulations at the time, I would imagine it was sold at specialist retailers' "news-stands". Certainly, only a percentage of of SLA was initially devoted to wireless. But that percentage progressively increased. Indeed, the wireless content increased so much that SLA morphed into Radio in ANZ on 4 April 1923 and shipping, motor vehicle and aeronautical content largely disappeared. I assume the subsequent qualification as to "AWA Monthly" is actually intended to refer to "Sea, Land and Air" rather than the much later 1930s "AWA Radiogram"? - Samuel.dellit (talk) 23:23, 31 December 2018 (UTC)Reply
