HICKSVILLE, NY, Sep 8, 1999--Current CQ VHF Editor Richard Moseson, W2VU, is the new editor of CQ magazine. CQ Communications Inc President Dick Ross, K2MGA, announced Moseson's appointment Wednesday--six weeks after the death of long-time CQ Editor Alan M. Dorhoffer, K2EEK. Dorhoffer had been at the helm of CQ for 23 years. Moseson's appointment was effective as of September 1.

Since joining CQ Communications seven and a half years ago, Moseson has been involved in numerous projects, including creation of CQ's Amateur Radio videotape series, management of CQ's 50th anniversary issue, development of the magazine's various Web sites, and--most recently--the launch of CQ VHF in 1996. Moseson will continue as CQ VHF editor in addition to his new duties as editor of CQ. He'll have the support of 20-year veteran CQ Managing Editor Gail Schieber, KC2DHK.

An Amateur Extra class licensee, Moseson has been an amateur since 1970. He is active on a variety of modes and bands on HF, VHF, and UHF.

Asked what he sees as the future of CQ under his leadership, Moseson cited the magazine's long and highly regarded history in Amateur Radio and said it's "a fine publication exactly as it is." CQ has been in publication since 1945.

"Every editor has different views towards the various components of his publication, and I'm no different," Moseson continued, "but what I have the privilege of inheriting is a solid magazine."

Does he envision making changes? "Of course," he said, "but changes intended to make an already good magazine even better." Moseson said one immediate change would be to actively solicit feature articles on all aspects of Amateur Radio from all segments of the amateur community.
