Charly, why are you so quick todismiss the idea of a web-based,
advertiser-supported magazine?  It requires more than QST's images of
the paper magazine, but as someone suggested a few weeks ago, there
*are* successful hobby magazines on the web.  Of course, some people
will always seek out "echo chambers" that reinforce their own views, but
quality still has a chance.

Do these magazines actually make money from subscriptions or from the advertising revenue? Maybe fewer vendors are advertising in CQ. I know that QST is about half ad's now. 73
