Apart from 'Elektor', that was called 'Electuur' here in the Netherlands,

Way before that we had 'Radio Blan':

In .de, we had Funkschau for the radio-oriented and ELEKTRONIK at the
industrial engineering level, above mine when I was in school.

Yes, used to read several German magazines,
just did find an old MC from 1988 in a drawer 5DM :-)...
That was all about micro-computers.
Used to buy those at the train station kiosk whenever I did see one.
We get German in highschool here, so no reading problems.
I was reading C't too

and a few more...

Some US stuff, Wireless World for example
Scientific American sometimes...

On a visit in .cz, I found Amatérské Radio, interesting but unobtainium
