But with the income from subscribers and advertisers why can't they hire a data 
entry person part time to post the results on the web site?  All the work has 
been done when the results are posted in the magazine.  All we are asking is 
someone, somehow, put this very same, exact information on a web site so we 
don't have to save the magazines for years just for a couple of pages of 
contests results like the ARRL does it.
