Well, now Wayne is fudging: "if the advertisers will ante up we'll come out with a combined October/November issue." But as Joel says, hardly anyone cares any more.

With the hobby slowly dying as a result of a lack of new hams, the industry is fading awayand without sufficient advertising the magazine couldn't continue. It was an interesting 43 years. I'll write about it some time. I'll be continuing my essays on my web site for those subscribers who mainly bought the magazine for them. No definite arrangements have been made yet about subscriptions. I do plan to scan in articles of lasting interest on a Web site so they'll be available. Wayne
