Hi armornut,
As you know, we offer 6 print issues a year; February, April, October, and December no longer are print. We now offer them as DownLoadable Content, or DLC for short. Subscribers who have provided FSM with an email address receive a scheduled email whenever a new DLC is ready to download. So, if you have given FSM an email address associated with your subscription (and opted in for notifications), you'll receive an email with a link in it.
However, you probably haven't seen those, so here's a link to the three DLCs that are currently available.
Click into any one of the three available, scroll down, and you'll find a link to download a PDF. Depending upon how you have your computer set up, it may automatically open in a browser (Safari, Chrome, Edge, etc.). That's cool. From the browser, download and save it onto your computer. Once you've done that, we recommend using Adobe Acrobat Reader (free download here if you don't have it) to view it. Acrobat will allow you to view the pages singly or in spreads so you can see the images that go across both pages just like you would with a print magazine.
Yes, nonsubscribers interested in DLC content can purchase DLCs from the Kalmbach Hobby Store. However, release to nonsubscribers is delayed by about 6 weeks to allow subscribers to have plenty of time with the content before its released more widely.
(INSIDE BASEBALL: We decided that the DLCs would release on the same schedule as the print pubs would to stores; February is the second Tuesday in January; April the second Tuesday in March; October the second Tuesday in September; and December the second Tuesday in November. This allow us to maintain our prodcution schedules and continue to treat the DLCs just like regular issues.)
If you have any other questions, I'll do my best to answer them.
