[Fists] Re: BPL

[Steve w0oow]

Good job Dwight.  I like your informational page on BPL.

I am NOT at all pleased with the ARRL at the moment and I have told them
that.  However,  it is my recommendation that FISTS back the ARRL's fight
against BPL at this time.  I think that a common front will weight in better
than separate ones.

IF FISTS joins in this fight as an organization, it would sure look good to
see more than one organization speaking with a common voice.  The BPL fight
is not about pro/con ARRL.  It is about all of us having a quiet spectrum in
which to work.  Quiet spectrun  versus someone elses pocketbook. Definately
a no brainer!
