Hailing Frequencies is a gen Star Trek: TNG anthology. According to an ad in Comlink #6, it was originally meant to be a zine that was devoted to the character of Tasha Yar, though this seems to not be the case.

The zine Resurrection was supposed to be part of this series but instead was published as an unconnected standalone novel.

a flyer: "TIRED OF WAITING?? WELL, THE WAIT IS ALMOST OVER."

From the flyer: ""Sunshine and Roses," originally slated for issue #1, has been bumped to #2 due to size constraints."

Also from the flyer:

Please, send no cash through the mail, as the Post Awful in this town is fond of losing things. We have had awful trouble with this infamous agency. On that same note, if you do not receive your zine in a timely fashion, be sure to notify us and we will send you another copy, but please — be polite. There are five immutable forces of nature — earth, wind, fire, water, and the postal service.
