Publication issues

As many of you have heard, due to COVID and its related shipping and
distribution problems, many businesses have had trouble getting paper to
print their publications.  Unfortunately, the ARRL is among them.  

Faced with the decision to delay publication of the May QST and other
periodicals the League chose to  use a lesser grade of paper to get the
magazines out on time. So, yes the paper is flimsy and you can see the
following pages print through the pages.  Yes, it looks like an old
Sears of Montgomery Wards catalog.  But, I don't suggest secondary use
as those catalog pages endured... :-) 

Please be patient and enjoy the magazines.  As paper shipments improve
the following issues will be back to the quality we have come to
expect!
