I have been doing some thinking....uh, oh!
Perhaps the answer to this line score thing is to offer a QST subscription
in two forms. One would be the traditional hard copy in its present form.
The other would be an on-line version with expanded line scores as well as
traffic reports and all the stuff the ARRL says can't be put in QST because of
page limitations.
Prices would either be the same or would be cheaper for the on line version.
To limit access of the on-line version, I'm sure the computer geeks among
us have excellent ways to limit access to only subscribers.
How this would affect advertising? That's a good question, best addressed
by N0AX.
Everybody would be happy, the traffic guys, the little pistols, the big
pistols and maybe even the staff at headquarters.
I am going to the Tampa hamfest tomorrow and mention this to the guys from
ARRL who will be there and see what their thoughts are.
