My sentiments, exactly.  I have tried to think about what reasons I might
have had, if I were an ARRL Director, to become convinced that contest
line scores were less worthy of QST space than several pages of, say, 
color photos of things like random road signs that happen to have "Ham" 
or the like in a double-meaning context.  I find plenty in QST that is,
frankly, not very interesting to me; and I miss having the full contest
reports, even for the events I don't enter.  I've been reading them for 
40+ years, and it's still fascinating to see what everyone else has done.
