Does QST really survive? I reluctantly dropped a 40-yr membership when they told me membership cost went up significantly and no longer included getting the printed magazine. The magazine alone would now cost almost as much as a membership used to. So, I wonder... How many issues are actually being circulated? And is online-reading-only the same as saying a magazine still survives? (Not in my estimation.)

And yet, QST survives, while 73 and CQ are history....

I worked summers at the ARRL in the mid '70s and knew Doug DeMaw, who probably had a hand in those projects. He led the team that was always coming up with stuff like that. I agree with you about the purist leanings at the League, and that's why competitive pubs like 73 and CQ were so successful.
