The annual subscription to CQ Radio Amateur Journal Magazine is $32.00. I also
show I subscribe to CQ CONTEST Magazine by K3EST for $25.00 a year but haven't
received a copy for awhile. Are they still being published? I think it is a
quarterly magazine. So that is $57.00 per year times how many others subscribe
to these magazines. Seems they could hire a data entry type person to post
contest results on their web site several times a year part time.
Here is quote from their web site:
Our primary focus has always been on operating activities, including DXing and
contesting, but construction projects and technical articles regularly find a
home in CQ as well.
If their primary focus is on contesting then it seems they are not fulfilling
their goals.
