The swedish ham magazine QTC seems to be following the same trend.
Technical articles are beeing replaced by mega-multi-button
advertisments and quantity seems to go before quality... Some ad's
disguised as "reviews"

Hi all
As a member of the team checking the quality of any article submitted to
our french Radio-REF journal before publishing, may I tell you that the
situation is the same in France ?
Our team is trying to avoid any publication of mega-multi-button
advertisments disguised as "review", but it happens that such bullshit
is published from time to time, because the Editor has to (for financial
reasons, or only to have something to publish, or both ?)
The real issue is that we, as a national ham association, don't receive
any serious technical stuff anymore.
The remaining very rare really technical articles are published nowadays
in commercial revues (where the authors are paid for that, which is not
the case for our non benefit journal), or in "high tech" journals such
as QEX, VHF Comms, DUBUS, etc
Volonteers belong more and more to endangered species ...
