MAGIC IN THE SKY

Just in time for the April edition of CQ comes a totally irreverent, irrelevant and unreliable projection of your ham radio future. We’re not talking about propagation prognostications, which are assembled by heliocentric scientists of significant renown (seen elsewhere in this issue). Nope! These projections have been assembled using interpretations from crystal balls, cloud formations, tea leaves, the ancient Roman method of seeing what the birds are up to each morning and whether or not the coin landed showing heads or tails. Think that doesn’t matter? Ask the Buffalo Bills how their last coin toss worked out!

So after a great deal of useless research and internal armwrestling, and consulting with the renowned fortune-teller Madam Triode,  , uh, um, (aw, c’mon Rich!), abashedly () presents the first ever that links the cosmos to your radio future!
