Gang.

CQ Communications that publishes CQ Magazine is a small business.  They are 
current on the digital version but they have been having trouble finding 
reasonable printers.  They do not have the backing of a large organization such 
as ARRL who had had to raise member dues to keep putting out QST.  

Remember CQ sponsors many of the top contests then provides space including all 
the line scores.  ARRL and QST stopped printing the line scores years ago.  I 
suggest that instead of dropping CQ contesters need to at least buy the digital 
version.

The question is what happens to all the CQ WW contests if CQ goes out of 
business.  Efforts have tried to better fund CQ Communications over the past 
few years and were dropped due to the funds needed.  Support CQ to support our 
contests.
