I've been paying: ARRL membership $39 QEX for members $24 ------ Total $63 If I drop my ARRL membership the cost would be: ARRL membership $00 QEX non-member $36 -------- Total $36 Almost a 43% reduction in cost to get the cream of publications. Of course, I'd be giving up QST. Somehow, that doesn't bother me too much. John I re-joined ARRL a few years back after having let my membership lapse because of what I considered a lack of technical articles in QST. *I was primarily a member to get QST. *After my membership expired again, I got boatloads of mailings from ARRL, begging me to come back and even offering a choice of a book to get me to come back. *I mailed back their letters with a hand written note saying I wasn't interested. *They asked me why. *I said QST isn't nearly technical enough for me anymore. *They suggested I get QEX. *So I made a "counter-offer"...I asked them to substitute QEX for QST. *They basically laughed and said they couldn't do that. *Seems it would have saved them some money as QEX only comes out 6 timers per year versus 12 for QST. *So, now they get NO money from me...
