Sorry, but I don't buy into the idea that it's the responsibility of
operators to supply a columnist with submissions. The original criticism
of the current column was that they were basically just summaries of
openings, and lacking any sort of motivation, encouragement to improve
your station, and/or information on how to do so. I think that criticism
is valid.
Also, no one forced anyone to agree to write the column. Being the
editor of the prestigious "World Above 50 MHz" column is an honor, and
holding that position should not automatically shield the editor from
critique.
