Sorry, but I'm not going to be able to make it to Dayton 
this year.  I hope some of you will remember to pack a 
camera, take some contester photos, and share them with
NCJ readers.

BTW, the May/June NCJ will be printed by this Friday and 
should be in mailboxes soon. Here's what's inside:

 * 1994 9G5AA CQWW CW Expedition
 * Automatically Switched Receive Bandpass Filters
 * Beetle Valley Virus
 * C4C Excursion for WAEDC
 * Contest Quiz
 * Review of the Force 12 Monobanders for 20 and 15
 * Profile of AH6AZ
 * A System for Rating Contest Operators
 * History/Explanation of the California QSO Party
 * Up the Tower column
 * Contest Tips, Tricks, and Techniques column
 * VHF-UHF Contesting column
 * QRP Contesting column (new!)
 * International Contests

Because of space constraints, we had to hold an article about
operating the 10-meter contest from 5Z4 and a nice review of
the new ETO 91B amplifier -- they'll appear in the July/Aug issue.
And that one is filling up fast, so if there's anything you'd 
like to submit, you'd better do it soon!

With the high rotators prices there may still be room for more
manufacturers of good rotators of the ringrotator type and prop pitch
type.  More competition might keep the prices more reasonable.
