Might I suggest that instead of dropping out of the ARRL. Rejoin and
swamp EVERYONE and I mean everyone at ARRL HQ with letters and emails
voicing your concern and opinions on the direction that the ARRL is
heading. Then when elections come vote your concerns and opinions. Now
I don't want to start a major OFF Thread discussion with this. We
should stay the fight and not give up. ONE mans opinion can make a
difference. Just ask Wayne and Eric.
