[QCWA] Fw: WorldRadio Online Goes Mobile!

[VE3JX]

Greetings all,

All good things must come to an end.  (sigh)

I received this email the other day, regarding WorldRadio online magazine 
transitioning to a paid-for item, from the freebie it has been.  It was 
predictable that this would happen, sooner or later, as its production costs 
will be the same as for any magazine, with the only savings being in the way 
it is distributed.  I think it is almost 3 years that we have been able to 
access it online.  As of the November issue, it will be available for a 
nominal cost.  A single issue will be $3, while a special deal, valid only 
until October 24th, is a one year's subscription for $10.  (The normal 
annual rate will be $20.)

If you have enjoyed the magazine, and perhaps read the QCWA column in 
odd-month issues, then you should consider taking advantage of the 
time-limited bargain "Charter" rate of $10 for the next year.

Have a great day everyone!

Cheers,

Dave Hayes VE3JX

P.S.  It appears from the email below that the release date for each issue 
will change from the 20th to the 25th of the preceding month. -jx

WorldRadio Online Is Going Mobile!
Dear (Contact First Name),

As an avid WorldRadio Online reader we know you enjoy its traditional focus 
on the people and groups who make up the ham radio hobby and regular 
coverage of popular ham topics, including DXing, emergency communications, 
antennas and "trail-friendly radio." We're writing to tell you about some 
exciting news . . . WorldRadio Online is spreading its wings and going 
mobile!
