Our contracts with Sky & Telescope and Astronomy Magazines provides discounts for paid up RCA members only. We do the paperwork and you save the money. We send each of them one check from our treasury and one page with all the information. A lot less work for them, and great savings for you.

 

Please be aware that I send in the orders once a month at the end of the week of the monthly RCA meeting.

Because the Magazine publishers outsource the processing of the orders and printing of the mailing labels, it takes 2 months before you will get your magazine as it takes them 1-2 weeks to process the order, then they print the labels about 4 weeks in advance of the mailing, then they mail the magazines 5 weeks before the beginning of the month that the issue is for.

i.e. In late January you would receive the March issue. So if you subscribe in January you would receive the May issue in late March.
(Isn't outsourcing fun?)
