[CQ-Contest] Line Scores

[Alexander Teimurazov]

 Its interesting why NCJ is not publishing ARRL contest results
 I know NCJ is ARRL magazine also?
 If not then really NCJ is in difficult position and they are magazine from
contester with difficulties to get access to results of the contests and
publish them
We need results of the contests anyway and I dont know what to do in that
situation
 That will be really very bad if contest organizers will care only to make
money and forget that contest even such popular like CQ WW and ARRL need
advertizing
