ADXA Folks,

As ADXA President I want to respectfully request we not migrate into a 
political discussion about the Russian invasion of Ukraine here on our 
reflector. There are several other forums you can participate in for 
that purpose.

We each have a personal position on this matter. I certainly do and if 
you're interested in it I will gladly discuss it with you but not here 
and not via any amateur radio related media. There is absolutely nothing 
that requires you to contact any station you feel uncomfortable 
communicating with.

Amateur radio has always been a place where we could go to get away from 
our personal struggles and the world problems and clear our mind 
enjoying amateur radio, whatever part of its vast offerings you enjoy 
participating in. Sure, there are political debates and arguments on the 
ham bands, especially if you tune across 75 meters, but you do not have 
to listen to those, unless you want to, and you can tune away to another 
frequency.

So I implore you to please keep it that way within ADXA and on our 
reflector and let's continue to pursue amateur radio as an avenue away 
from world politics.

73 Joel W5ZN
ADXA President
