Nr 5 :   Vote the way the members of his devision membership have let him 
know they want.  If its against what he said when running for office, or against 
his personal views, he should RESIGN.  If he truly believes his way is the 
right way, and members disagree, he has the opportunity to try to convince 
members, and if unsuccessful ,resign and allow a new election, as apparently the 
majority no longer support him.

   I cannot remember exact dates of that survey, but I responded via either 
an email , or on the ARRL web pages.  I believe it was within the past 18 to 24 
months.  Does anyone have more info on that?  How about past copies of QST?   
 I do know that I received a response from someone within ARRLs leadership, 
when I complained about their changing their minds, and it was not a very 
substantal explanation.  Wish I had kept it, but think it was lost when my HD 
failed here.
