I too am a Life Member...so I can't deprive them of my money.  I suspect your 
outlook is a realistic one...since the ARRL Board is a mirror of American 
politics...there are not enough unhappy voters to make a difference.

What's next after ARRL rings, affinity credit cards for The League, Auto 
Insurance?

How about ARRL beer...it could be sold as the real, official, approved 807.

Think of it...hundreds of hams at Dayton with Call Sign adjustable hats, ARRL 
rings, sucking down 807s as they charge things to their ARRL branded plastic 
money.
