75th Anniversary Issue

Editor, CQ:

A comment on your January issue … WOW! The articles from the past issues were absolutely fantastic. The reminiscent articles in QST are pale compared to yours. I especially enjoyed the article on propagation during 1955-1959. I missed out on that as I didn’t become interested until late 1963 and licensed in 1964. Keep up the great job on the magazine. I enjoy each and every issue!
