That's valid.  But I'm generally not interested in anything they 
print other than the contest stuff, and I have a hard time supporting 
anything W5YI participates in - he absolutely sickens me.

As far as the WWs, they are not my favorites, but are for many 
people, and I do enjoy them when I do operate.  But if CQ folded, I 
don't think it would be the end of the CQWW.  Primarily because those 
contests are administered using volunteer networks...AFAIK, the 
magazine doesn't really have a lot to do with the operations of the 
contests.  I think K3EST et al would jump in without hesitation and 
the contests would go on.  I'd be willing to make a small wager that 
he's already got somewhat of a contingency plan for that scenario.

JMO,

Lee
