All radio amateurs should be aware of the ARRL's new publication,
QEX, that deals with subjects that are judged to be too technical for
the readership of QST.

QEX is in newsletter format, and consequently, has much less lead
time than QST.  The quality of articles is extreme: running from
very good to poor.  However, the good artilces far outweigh the poor ones.
I recommend it to anyone interested in the latest work done
by technically inclined radio amateurs.

QEX is $6 for 12 issues (i think).  For more information contact
ARRL, 225 Main Street, Newington CT  06111, 203-666-1541.

I am also dissappointed in QEX and the few articles that are published
could easily fit in QST and make it a better magazine. The real problem
is probably that very few people submit articles to QEX and no-one
is to blame but those of us that have some good technical background
and don't take time to share it with others (myself included). Maybe
the ARRL needs to assign volunteers to look into different areas of
design and theory and publish more articles in the QEX??? Don't
know the cure but I am ready to let my subscription drop but first
I have to evaluate why I haven't submitted anything.
