CQ's audience is a broad spectrum of people with a shared interest in ham radio (see our Mission Statement). They come from all walks of life and have technical knowledge ranging from nearly nothing to leading edge. In addition, ham radio has many specialty areas, so even a longtime ham with significant experience in one area may be a complete "newbie" in another. What this means is that you should not assume that every reader will bring a particular level of prior knowledge to your article's topic. Because of this, you should try to explain all concepts and define all terminology as you write. This will provide a roadmap for the newcomer and assure the old-timer that you know what you're talking about well enough to explain it to someone who doesn't.
Before you start to write, please send us a query outlining your proposed article (e-mail will get the quickest response). That way, you'll know whether we're interested and we'll be able to plan for your article. If you've been published before, please let us know where; or please attach a sample of your writing.
