Before this gets started on KYHAM...let's not let it.

This is the type of topic that turns into a name calling match, and 
honestly, that isn't going to happen here.  People subscribe here to 
receive useful information on KY amateur radio.

Now don't think I am fussing at Kevin too much.  I'm not really.  
Beside, I have already said something to him privately.  That is the 
way I prefer to work.

Actually, I am glad someone finally broke the ice. I have been waiting 
for it...<grin>

If you have legitimate comments, or thoughts about the ARRL proposal, 
feel free to make them.  Do so in the normal decorum for KYHAM, and 
follow the rules posted yesterday. (you thought that was a chance 
posting of rules)  98% of the people subscribed here including myself 
would invite a "thoughtful and productive" conversation about the 
topic.  It is news...

However, the topic will not take the form it is on the newsgroups, 
message boards, and turn into a fight that divides members against 
members on this listserv.  I will not let it happen here.

Talk it up, but be cool!
73, Take care,
