Plus… we’ve got results of the 2014 CQ DX Marathon, a primer on using a frequency counter(Learning Curve), an in-depth look at FCC actions on medium- and low-frequency ham bands, and a look at “Spectrum, Auctions and the Great TV Repack” in our Communications Horizons column.
Also, DX Editor N2OO offers a guide to successful QSLing. Plus, we look at ham radio and space science (VHF Plus) and the connections between space weather and Earth weather (Propagation).
