> Check out the new ARRL Video.  It features Walter Cronkite,  using a

> The same(?) K2 appears again later as part of the story.

> The ARRL Goes to Washington now is available  Produced by Dave Bell,
> W6AQ, Alan Kaul, W6RCL, and Bill Pasternak, WA6ITF, this video documents
> the League's activities on behalf of Amateur Radio on Capitol Hill and
> at the FCC. Because ARRL's advocacy to support Amateur Radio in
> "official Washington" typically occurs behind the scenes, it receives
> little fanfare in relation to its importance and significance.
> Featuring ARRL President Jim Haynie, W5JBP, and narrated by former CBS
> News anchor Walter Cronkite, KB2GSD, the presentation's debut at Dayton
> Hamvention was resoundingly positive. The video makes a great
> centerpiece for an Amateur Radio club program or meeting, and it's ideal
> for showing at hamfests, forums and even civic group meetings.  The ARRL
> Goes to Washington is available for  download free of charge from the
> ARRL Web site.
