In regards to the Print QST and Digital QST-

I remember our original position, that members were to continue to receive the print QST and have an option to access the digital QST.  If they wished to no longer receive the print edition, they would need to call HQ to stop the mailings.  However, we were not going to “push” this option.

I received copies of emails “Go Green: Get Digital QST Only”, with an opt out form, from ARRL.

I do remember that this was discussed very briefly at a previous board meeting, but I’m not sure if there was a resolution.

So, what is our board position on this presently?  Should we be neutral and not say anything to members about this option and just let the Go Green e-mails speak for themselves?  Or should we be proactive and encourage this option?

On a somewhat related note, I have received questions as to when Digital QST will be available for Android devices as a dedicated App (like IOS).  They make the argument that the android sales are outperforming the IOS series.

Thanks!
