Has anyone received a CQ Magazine Since January?
#1

I'm always way behind on my magazine checking. I say checking because I scan them more than sit and read them.

The other day I noticed that the last CQ I received was in January. I know my subscription is up to date and I left a message with the subscription department but have not received an answer.

I read somewhere else, it may have been on on of the DXpedition sites that others have not be receiving their issues either. I know they had something in one of their issues about combining some of their publications and going digital but I don't think that CQ was one.

Anyone got a February, March or April CQ magazine in the mail. (Or have we seen the demise of another ham publication)?

This is a recent interview with the editor of CQ Magazine which explains the current changes taking place:

You should receive your paper CQ "soon". Ha! I just subscribed to the digital version. If you do so, don't subscribed through the CQ website. Rather download the Zinio app which they use for digital publishing and subscribe through the app because they offered me a lower promotional price for a 12 month subscription.

I also saw someplace where they are trying to get back on track. The next issue they mail will be a double issue covering February and March and then the April issue is soon to follow.

I suspect that some big changes that we don't know about happened at CQ, and that we can't see and that threw there whole operation into a tizzy and this is where they ended up.

I did receive a March / April issue earlier in the week. I hope they are back to normal.

Well, I'm a newbie and when I learned about this magazine and saw that they had a digital version, I subscribed to that instead. The digital issue for May is already out. The paper versions seem to be lagging behind.

If you haven't already done so, please check out the digital version, they are beautifully done and have much more content than the print edition including clickable links, videos, etc. They call the extra articles "CQ Plus" and only available in the digital edition.
