And, in a strange case of irony, I joined so I could get to the QST
archives.  While I can't get anything newer than 6 years ago, I don't care.
Hollow state is where it's at.  These semiconductor things are just a
passing fad.

QST is garbage. Gave up my ARRL membership because of the "dumbing down" of 
radio, and the fact ARRL has it's own agenda and doesn't reflect it's 
membership anymore.

As publications go, it was never the most technical, but it was probably the

most complete cross-section of amateur radio as a hobby, but I miss World 
Radio more than QST
