''Radio-Electronics'' magazine was published under various titles from 1929 to 2002 . Hugo Gernsback started it as ''Radio-Craft'' in 1929 and the title was changed to ''Radio-Electronics'' in 1948 . In 1992 the name was changed to '' Electronics Now '' and after 1999 it was merged with '' Popular Electronics '' to become '' Poptronics ''. Gernsback Publications went out of business in December 2002 . ''Radio-Electronics'' was aimed at electronics professionals such as radio and TV repairmen. The audience was mainly males, with the tagline on the cover in the 1970s reading "For Men with Ideas in Electronics". Around 1971 , many authors who used to contribute to ''Popular Electronics'' started writing for Radio-Electronics. There was some competition in digital logic projects between ''Radio-Electronics'' and ''Popular Electronics''. In September 1973 , ''Radio-Electronics'' published Don Lancaster 's "TV Typewriter" and in July 1974 it published Jon Titus's " Mark-8 Personal Minicomputer". However, ''Popular Electronics'' published the most famous project in January 1975 with the MITS Altair 8800 computer. In 1975, ''Radio-Electronics'' had a monthly paid circulation of 163,000 .
