If all of you cared so much why did you not buy the magazine?

Hell you cant even find the dam thing on the news stand.

And in my area, even with a population of almost a million people within 3
counties, about 1000 of them hams and at least another 200 or more radio
enthusiasts along the line of SWL'ing and scanner interests, you can find
that one NOR CQ, QST or many other radio related mags!!!!

Did he ever quit spouting all the personal politics? I think he would have
done better in talk radio.

The magazine was ok in so far as the articles, but the opinions sucked. He
is entitled to his own, but in a few cases I found him wrong. I likened him
to Rush Limbaugh. An Agenda. Human "Pied Pipers"! You tend to get the
"followers" who then buy into every word and they in return ruin it for
everyone by furthering the agenda. There ARE those who can't think for
themselves. I have no problem with people's opinions, provided they at least
entertain others and give them the same courtesy. But those who feel they
are all right and the rest are all wrong - that bothers me. Newspapers,
Magazines, Radios, TV... if you disagree with the point being made by the
person running the show, they shut you down. They give you very little if
any - time to express a view contrary to theirs. Therefore, what they say
goes, to hell with the rest. IF they are as good as they want to think they
are, to have ALL of the answers, WHY don't they propel themselves into the
arenas where the choices are made and contribute? NO.. They sit back and
judge all.. in an arena where a wall is up and they can shut down anyone who
disagrees. L.

Read that rag once, way back when I was a tech no coder, and that was
enough for me.

I have to agree. The guy was just this side of a total nut case.

However, I found myself buying the magazine occasionally just to see
what nonsense he was spouting this month so I guess it wasn't
necessarily a bad business move. I'm glad to see that most Hams saw
through his unsubstantiated drivel.
