Another interesting publication for (ham) builders here in the US is QEX
(published by the ARRL.) I have no idea how well known it is (I just happened to
run across a copy at the ARRL table at the TRW swap meet) but I was impressed
that it had some fairly technical stuff for builders that was more than some
flashing LEDs.
two or three like you said. But that is still more
than we have here. Nuts
and Volts is it and it is pretty basic.

On the northeast hamfest circuit, well known, thanks to Finberg.

When hams gripe about how QST has been dumbed down so much in the
technical and project regions, it is amazing to find out how many _do_not_
know about QEX. The whole point of the QST split (old QST -> new QST and
QEX) was to make everyone happy - one magazine for average Joe Ham, and
one for the hardcore project-building hams. The ARRL seems to be very bad
at marketing the magazine.

There's also Circuit Cellar. Electronics World which
is a UK mag (have to admit it's uncommon to find these
days).
There's a handful of Active Electronics stores around
the country. Conveniently there was one in Long Island
while I lived there, and another one about an hour
west on the way to Philadelphia.
