[Wswss] [VHF] "QST" Faster Than Internet (Partially)

[Kutzko, Sean, KX9X]

Hi Ralph-

Thanks for the note. Sorry you didn't enjoy the coverage in QST; we only
get 2 pages in the magazine for the results article. We had far more
"required" information than we had room for in print, and something had
to give. 

The web results were just posted about 10 minutes ago; you can find the
Division Leaders there. It's at http://www.arrl.org/contests/results

Contest results articles can quickly deteriorate into "Fred beat Bob,
and Bob beat Larry," and that's fairly boring reading. Trying to find a
balance in QST between listing all those that warrant coverage for a
great effort and making things appealing to the casual reader to
hopefully entice them into participating in future runnings of any event
is challenging, especially when you only get two pages. 

73,

Hi Sean,

I was very disappointed with your contest results for 
2009 ARRL UHF contest in the January 2010 QST page 81/82!
You left out Division Leaders section, why?
