- John F. Rider was a natural teacher who rose to become one of the biggest
names in electronics publishing during the golden age of the vacuum tube. Rider’s stature
in publishing would rank alongside
Hugo Gernsback and Howard W.
Sams. All three managed, in their
own way, to be at once technical yet
popular. Rider in particular, has the
trademark down to earth teaching
style. Rider invented the all purpose
instrument “Rider Chanalyst” in
1938. RCA would purchase the rights
from Rider and shifted operations to
Camden, NJ.
What Rider accomplishes in his
publications, is to make electronics
accessible and even fun. Rider had the same success in the U.S. Army during WWII and his
teaching and publications trained many thousands of technicians in the radio field. John
received “Ralph Batcher Memorial Award” Presented by Radio Club of America in 1977,
awarded to a member who assisted substantially in preserving the history of radio and
electronic
