About this product
This barcode, UPC 0 09128 48783 0, is the newsstand code of Electronics Now, the monthly electronics hobbyist magazine published by Gernsback Publications of Farmingdale, New York.[1] Electronics Now was the July 1992 renaming of Radio-Electronics, the title Hugo Gernsback had started as Radio-Craft in 1929; in January 2000 it merged with Popular Electronics to become Poptronics.[2] The code is printed beside the cover prices on the October 1992 issue, whose cover story was a build-it-yourself FM Handi-Talkie, and again on the September 1995 issue with the issue add-on 09.[1][3] A barcode catalogue lists it under an eBay listing of that October 1992 issue.[4]
The last Radio-Electronics issues printed the code 0 71896 48783 1, with the same 48783 item number.[5] The magazine kept ISSN 0033-7862 at the renaming and carried ISSN 1067-9294 by December 1999.[1][6]

Coverage measures the evidence recorded here. It does not rate the product.
- Identity: 3 / 3 · Name, brand and classification recorded
- Context: 3 / 3 · Evidence groups assigned to a researched label, edition or analysis
- Label photographs: 0 / 3 · Researched contexts with an assigned photograph
- Specifications: 0 / 6 · Recorded specifications mapped to comparable property keys
- relationships · unknown: The UPC block 0 09128 carries magazines of several unrelated publishers (Horse Illustrated, Mopar Collectors Guide, a Comag puzzle title), which points to a newsstand distribution block rather than a publisher prefix; no company is written as prefix owner.
- identity · disputed: The June 1992 Radio-Electronics cover prints 0 71896 48783 with the same 48783 item number; the July 1992 cover text is garbled, so the exact first issue carrying 0 09128 48783 0 is between July and October 1992.
- images · unknown: No front cover picture with a licence that allows reuse; the scans on World Radio History carry no stated licence.
