[NJARC] Hands-on Radio History Jan. 17

[njarc@mailman.qth.net]

To The list...
I have some concerns about Alex's announcement. I was under the impression 
that the January repair clinic was to be a "members only" event. I know that 
Alex had arranged to have the radio, TV, phono exhibits available for the public 
as well as our clinic as a display in  and of itself.  But by inviting public 
radios for repair will make it nearly impossible for the staff  to handle our 
own club members equipment which was the original intent of this clinic. By 
having Al Klase, Scott Marshall and Phil Vourtsis  and others helping with the 
displays  The number of qualified helpers is markedly lowered. We need someone 
to take on the responsibility of coordinating the radios and helpers. The 
helpers need to have advance notice of model numbers and symptoms if possible. If 
this was to be Al, he now is spread too thin. 
Another concern is the promise of "free" repairs without any mention of 
parts. Is the club prepared to give away parts? I don't think so.
I think it is necessary that any future press releases that involve the NJARC 
be cleared by the president with the appropriate approval of the board.
Happy holidays to all,
Marty Friedman, Trustee, NJARC
