Our award Winning newsletter
The NVRG Valve Clatter is a full color monthly publication varying in size from 12 to 20+ pages. The majority of our members receive it in PDF format via email. Members who do not use email receive a printed B&W via snail mail.
Our Valve Clatter has been published monthly, with few exceptions, since March 1978 when it came to life as a single page, two-sided flyer. In the Archives below you’ll find PDF copies of nearly every Valve Clatter ever published.

Valve Clatter Archives
In our archives you’ll find PDF versions of nearly every copy of the NVRG’s newsletter since the Regional Group held it’s first meeting in 1978. Our early versions were obviously cut and paste. As technology progressed so did we. Beginning in 2003 we made the Valve Clatter available as a full color PDF electronically to all NVRG members who so desire. Now, nearly all NVRG members receive the full color PDF version while a few still get a Xeroxed B&W copy by snail mail. Issues from 1978 to 2020 can be found here. More recent issue are found here. If you’re looking for a specific issue that hasn’t been posted yet contact us at info.nvrg@gmail.com.
