Does anyone have this months issue of Sky & Tel (US)

My copy of Sky and Tel usually arrives by now but I have yet to see it. Has anyone else already received the latest issue? I am not at home at the moment so I can't check the last issue date, but I know there is supposed to be one out by now...hope I haven't lost another issue!

Still waiting

I have sent an email to Sky&Tel informing them of my missing July issue, but as of today July 17 my August issue still hasn't arrived. Has anyone else got their August issue yet?

If this continues, I will have to ring Aus Post and get some asses kicked! If they want to knock of a magazine subscription, pick on "Dolly" or "Women's Weekly"....leave my Sky&Tel alone!!!

Trevor, our August issue arrived yesterday. We received 2 July issues but didn't receive our June issue.

If you can work it out, "You're a better man than I am, Gunga Din".

I got my Sky & Space last night (Wednesday) to my home address but still no US Sky & Tel...either July or August, which goes to my work address. I think I may have to ask them to resend the August, and maybe change my mail address from work to home? I get my Aussie Sky & Tel OK, so far, at work though. Someone obviously perfers the US one, or maybe they knock that one off because they can't get it in the newsagents.

May the skies over their home be forever shrouded in cloud, their reflector tarnish, SCT have finger marks over the corrector and their refractor have a severe color problem...

Not having seen the US version since it was ?replaced by the Oz version, is there much difference in the articles?
Obviously the ads will be different.

Between 40 to 50% of the magazine is the same articles as in the Aussie version, but now that the aussie one is bi monthly, the percentage of "different" articles is probably a bit greater. I particularly enjoy looking through the ads, don't we all, and wishing the prices in there were aussie dollars, don't we all! It also reduces the "time between reads" of all things astro. I contains some stuff that is strictly northern, but they could say the same thing about our magazines.

I sent them an email a couple of days ago asking to change my address to home and said it looks like I have missed the August issue too
