There is definitely something bad going on at CQ.
I had to request replacement copies of both the August and October
issues because the originals never arrived. I did receive the
replacements, but never the originals.
I received TWO copies of the June issue a week or so apart.
The issues that have arrived recently have been showing up very late in
the month.
This was discussed at some length among members of NIDXA about a month
ago, and these problems are widespread. One of our members who has a
full set of issues dating from 1945 missed the August issue and by the
time he called to request a replacement he was told they had none left.
When Ham Radio Magazine and 73 ceased publication, it happened abruptly
with little to no advance notice. I hope CQ figures out a way to survive!
