When hams gripe about how QST has been dumbed down technical and project regions, it is amazing to find
out how many _do_not_
know about QEX. The whole point of the QST split
(old QST -> new QST and
QEX) was to make everyone happy - one magazine for
average Joe Ham, and
one for the hardcore project-building hams. The ARRL
seems to be very bad
at marketing the magazine.
