3/96 CQ out

[HENRYPOL at aol.com]

Another good day at the PO Box!
The March 1996 issue of CQ arrived along with several new fishing mags (got
to do something here in NC during the summer when its too hot to do antenna
work).
Nice cover shot of AA1K's shack, but as usual, nothing written describing his
station.  Anyone know Jon well enough to ask for a station description?
Highlights in this issue include: 1995 WPX SSB results; Installing a tower on
your roof; more CW keys from K4TWJ; and 1995 Contest Survey results.

There are GO lists, DX bulletins, and all this type of stuff and more
is available on the Internet these days.  I would like to suggest that
folks who know the whereabouts of this type of stuff drop a line to
people who maintain way-cool ham radio Web pages (like KA9FOX) so they
can add pointers.  Then people will be able to look up this sort of 
information on their own.

At second best, I would encourage people to ask their friends to help
them out with getting this info.  Clearly sending a blast out to the
1600+ subscribers of CQ-Contest is overkill, not to mention outside of
the scope of the CQ-Contest mailing list.

And finally, this is not intended to specifically hassle the poster of
the original message.  He is not the first (nor the last,
unfortunately) to make this sort of posting.  This note is meant as a 
reminder that CQ-Contest is not the QSL route repository.

Hope everyone had fun in the contest.

John you had one HELL of a signal on Saturday afternoon in the Maryland
area on beverage receive antenna.  I have never heard such a signal!
