Eric,

  While I'm afraid that I don't know the trade rag you are describing, there
is a free listing of third party hardware for DEC available in the TRI/ADD
Shippable Products Catalog. It is available by anonymous ftp from

gatekeeper.pa.dec.com		16.1.0.2

gatekeeper:pub/DEC/TriAdd/TAcatalog.ps  


The new version of the catalog just went up on line on Friday afternoon (we
update it monthly) and is in standard postscript format. There is a compressed
version as well. 

I hope that this helps.

				Thanx,
				  AJ
