I'm going to tell you another secret of the Magazine Business - they print what
they get!
I know we've seen a whole bunch of articles on Microwave contesting/building
microwave transceivers. Have you noticed a lot of them are written by the same
person? A magazine CAN'T publish stuff that people don't write. Write up an
interesting contesting article, with photos, that is at the appropriate level
for QST, and I'll bet folks it gets published. If it's too complex, it'll end
up over at NCJ
