Good Mag  Time owned: more than 12 months
The price is $34.95 currently. I've subscribed to CQ for years and really like the mag. A little different perspective than QST or WorldRadio (both of which I also subscribe to). I will continue my Subs. since I'm nuts about anything ham radio. The more the merrier!

Price way to high  Time owned: more than 12 months
I really like the magazine and in the past have been a subscriber. The price for a subscription
just awful. Price is why I do not read it anymore. I do have a 2 year sub. to QST and the ARRL I alway keep current.

...since 1989...  Time owned: months
Yes, it is since 1989 that i can't miss a single issue of this magazine.
Now as a subscriber i must admit that my ham radio knowledge is as it is thanks to the great columninst.
I just would like some more technical gear review.

Like CQ  Time owned: more than 12 months
I've subscribed and read CQ for many years. I like it because it's different than QST, which I also like. Sure it has a lot of ads, but so does QST.
One thing I don't like is the way it's bound. A couple issues have come apart or were destroyed in the mail. There are construction articles... AD5X comes to mind immediately. Contesting, articles on antennas, VHF/UHF, product reviews. The price has gone up... have you noticed the price of everything has. I'll keep my subscription thank you.

Terrible  Time owned: more than 12 months
I was a subscriber to CQ and PopCom for many years. But now they have little content, are mostly ads, and are too expensive.

more than QST?  Time owned: more than 12 months
Last time I was checking, it was $36/year for CQ. Way too much for a magazine for a year.

Great read.  Time owned: more than 12 months
I look forward to CQ each month. QST priced itself out of my budget. Great articles from Dave Ingram. I get my best results from ads and promotions featured in this magazine compared to any of the others.

Too much ARRL Bashing!  Time owned: more than 12 months
For years, I subscribed to QST (through ARRL mbrshp) and to CQ to get a wide spectrum of information. What I bagan to notice was the CQ started taking up ARRL-bashing whenever it suited them or for whatever reason. I continued my subscription to CQ for an entire year after that to make sure the writers and staff were not just having a bad year...but it continued. So i CANCELLED my subscription and have not looked back.

Has become too expensive!  Time owned: more than 12 months
Subscribed to CQ and Pop Comm for years and years.... Recently thought about renewing both again but can't afford it any more. They have priced themselves out of my budget. Sorry Rich.. Wish I could afford it..
