[TenTec] New and Improved Terminology

[Dr. Gerald N. Johnson]

I'll have to look at that. I don't remember QEX existing in the 50s. In 
my collection issue #38 is April 1985 in newsletter format and issue #86 
is April 1989, four years later. 48 issues in four years, would put 
issue 1 (if always monthly) Feb 1982.

Not to say it wasn't QST talking about what is now called NVIS, but I 
don't think the term had been invented before 1988 by Brian Collins in 
England selling to the military.

I'll look at the ARRL index later. I do have access to the archives.
