[Alexandria Radio Club Reflector] radio merit badge class?

[David Wilburn]

Thanks, Rick!  I've CC'ed Jeff Price and James Holdener, who I understand

particularly familiar with the merit badge requirements, although this page
seems to imply that it would include small bits and bobs of the standard
Tech information:
