>Subject: Needed: a crowd of supporters for the hearing Thursday in Annapolis
>
>Please come to the General Assembly hearings Thursday, February 9, in
>Annapolis to show support for the Amateur Radio legislation the
>committees will be considering. You'll need to be in the Navy-Marine
>Corps stadium parking lot by noon, so the shuttle can carry you to the
>Senate Building in time to get through security and into the hearing.
>Details are at http://n3ij.home.comcast.net. The second hearing should
>be done by 3 p.m., although we won't know for sure, because the chair
>may shuffle the schedule. You DO NOT need to be a constituent of a
>committee member to show up. All you have to do is be there, in
>business clothing with NO hamfest hats or badges.
>
>Whether you can attend Thursday or not, there's something else we ask
>that you do. If your senator or delegates are members of the Senate
>Finance Committee or the House Environmental Matters committee, please
>send them an e-mail or leave a voice mail Thursday requesting their
>support for our bills. Full details for this are also on the Baltimore
>Amateur Radio Club Legislative Affairs website listed above. 
>
>Last year when we were attempting to get a resolution passed, we are
>told that Amateur Radio was widely praised for the support you
>provided. We just need to do it again this year.
>
>Thanks, 73 & look forward to meeting you in Annapolis on Thursday!
