Just been reflecting on the current Radcom. Generally better than of 
recent with some good amateur radio and related electronics topics 
covered. I still wonder though why we need to have 4 pages devoted to 
Aviation Radio. Whilst in itself is probably an interesting topic, I 
feel the connection to real Amateur Radio a little tenuous. The other 
thing I noticed was in Member's Ads which featured a photograph of a GPS 
unit. Trying to get underneath the reason for that one. Three scenarios 
come to mind : a) Only this advertiser requested a photograph to be 
added, b) The editor thought the readers wouldn't understand what a GPS 
system is, c) This was the only bit of kit the Editor recognised!  Also, 
I wonder what an A35 beam looks like? An Austin car? A Tongan? A road?
