So I get my January, 2020 issue in the mail today and notice QST
QuickStats on page 132 had the results of 4 recent polls on ham radio
related topics. Thought it might be fun to give my highly rated opinion
on the current poll so followed the instructions to go to
www.arrl.org/quickstats and this is what I found:
==================
"QuickStats Has Been Discontinued
The QST QuickStats polls were discontinued on December 3, 2019. The last
poll results were published in the January 2020 issue of QST.
We published QuickStats results for more than a decade in QST, but with
the increasing popularity of online polling -- with instant results --
it was clear that QuickStats had outlived its usefulness in a printed
publication.
ARRL's online presence will be expanding considerably in the months and
years to come. Watch for more interesting activities, including polls,
from ARRL on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, and many other platforms. And
if you were a QuickStats participant, thank you. Your interest was very
much appreciated.

=================
I must have missed the poll which asked if you would participate in
QuickStats if it moved to other platforms.
