    This week Rich W2VU gives us a peek into next months CQ magazine. Joe Eisenberg K0NEB, tells us about the Yuma Hamfest and shows us some new kits. Darryl Young, K5DGY teaches us the having a tech license does not restrict us in receiving many awards and certificates. Plus much more. Don't forget to send in your questions for Riley Hollingsworth, K4ZDH, retired special council to the FCC, to answer. Also send in your shack pictures and we will put them on the Tues night show. You can watch Amateur Radio Roundtable every Tues night at 8:00 PM central time on W5KUB.COM (0200 UTC Wed) Our show is also simulcast on famous international shortwave station WBCQ on 5130 Khz. We invite you to join our ham radio facebook group at https://www.facebook.com/groups/w5kub/

    I assume "next month" is really the February issue!

    Maybe they are talking about the March issue, which we MIGHT receive by May.

    I actually did receive the February issue a few days ago! Within the month of February! What's more, it's pretty beefy and has interesting articles. I like it better than QST, which IMHO has gone backwards with its latest style changes.

    "Next Month" is like the "Free Beer Tomorrow" sign at the bar.

    Sounds like CQ is on the mend. Time to pony up for a sub.

    Count your blessings! I bought a three-year subscription to CQ in 2012 and I'm still waiting for it to be fulfilled. CQ is no longer able to deliver outside the US.

    My several e-mail exchanges with W2VU have yielded assurances that they're working on the problem, but no results as yet.

    If CQ would get it's act together many more would subscribe but when the issues are so late at arriving if at all it runs people away.I'll just hold out & see if they stay afloat & can get the issues out earlier than they are now.I much prefer it over QST which I no longer get since I stopped wasting my money with the ARRL.I have not missed either of those.I don't know that I would risk more than a 1 year subscription at a time but time will tell. {:>)

    Still waiting for my refund. That was three years ago. Just consider it money you threw away on something worthless. You'll never see it again. In the future, only deal with ethical businesses and ethical people running those businesses.

    I only subscribe one year at a time. Minimizes the loss potential.
    I will say, the content is improving. They should eliminate hamfest & contest listings until they get the on-time mailing figured out.
    I would think that skipping two issues last year would have them caught up. They missed that opportunity.

    It’s February 28. I am still waiting to receive the February issue. Maybe the March issue will get here first?
