Hello Thomas,
Something entertaining – Thomas, N1SPY got his hands on a QST Magazine dated April 2041 if you can believe it! So he shared some of the stories in the magazine in a video and also attached the magazine to this email. I found some of the ideas in the magazine very entertaining.
There is also a story specifically regarding the golden years of shortwave listening – I really wish the “real” shortwave archive described in the magazine becomes reality one day!
The introductory video is here and the pdf magazine is attached.

This is hilarious! Thank you for sharing Ivan and Thomas!
I’m gonna put this in a time capsule, open it up in 2041, and check for accuracy! Great job, guys. It’s not easy being a radio prophet.
AS I see it, the future QST will have the same articles they have had for at least the past decade – what is a balun, is 1.5 SWR bad, explain how i cut a dipole, how to use APRS at a bike race!!!
Hey ARRL how about quality technical articles.
