[CQ-Contest] QST...A radical thought?

I have been doing some thinking....uh, oh!
 
Perhaps the answer to this line score thing is to offer a QST subscription  
in two forms.  One would be the traditional hard copy in its present  form.  
The other would be an on-line version with expanded line scores as  well as 
traffic reports and all the stuff the ARRL says can't be put in QST  because of 
page limitations.
 
Prices would either be the same or would be cheaper for the on line  version. 
 To limit access of the on-line version, I'm sure the computer  geeks among 
us have excellent ways to limit access to only subscribers.
 
How this would affect advertising?  That's a good question, best  addressed 
by N0AX.
 
Everybody would be happy, the traffic guys, the little pistols, the big  
pistols and maybe even the staff at headquarters.
 
I am going to the Tampa hamfest tomorrow and mention this to the guys from  
ARRL who will be there and see what their thoughts are.
