What Have You Done to My QST?
For the greater part of its 85-year life span, QST has been a black-and-white publication. As printing technology improved, we were able to add color covers, color advertising and some color in the editorial section, but most of the articles and columns were black-and-white. The ARRL Board approved the use of additional color in July.
As we reviewed the completed page proofs for this issue, I was struck by the difference that a little color makes in the look and feel of each QST page. Photos of people and equipment just set off the page. And, in response to requests from a number of you, we took this opportunity to increase the type size slightly as well.
What Have You Done
to My Web Site?
Visitors to the ARRL Web site at www.arrl.org/ were to a completely new look beginning October 2. The new design offers easier navigation and quick access to the most popular pages. In addition to the search engine and site index, there's now a drop-down menu system with links to nearly 100 of ARRL Web's most popular features.
