ARRL promised that the memebrrs would be polled first. Division Directors
each made similar commitments to the membership. I would like to see which
Div Directors polled the members.
Also as to licensing requirements, do you believe your Div. Director to be
in the pro-CW, ant-CW or neutral camp? Pro-dumbing, anti-dumbing, or
neutral camp.
So, lets have a "check in" - Please state
1. ARRL member? Yes/No
2. ARRL Division or your state if you don't know the Div.
3. Where you polled by the Div. Director? Yes/No
CWLIST DE N5LF QNI K...
I will start:
N5LF
ARRL Member (since 1976)
Roanoke Div. -
NO POLL
I believe the Roanoke director is Neutral to Anti- on CW and Pro-Dumbing
down.
Roanoke Div Director said he got his snapshot of the division's members'
views from his e-mails. As to a poll, he said that one was on the web
site -- but I think he is referreing to the one that the bogus Web Page poll
the ARRL posted a few of weeks ago then withdrew when it was swamped my
anti-code multiple votes...by the same few individuals.
No one I have spoken to in my Division knew of any polling. Therefore even
if the Roanoke Division posted a poll, they didn't publicize it. However, I
do not believe they had a Division poll -- not even a request for e-mailed
comments to the Div. Director.
