[NLRS] Important matter for VHFers

[w0zq at aol.com]

Hello NLRS-land

By now all of you should be aware of H.R.607, a new bill in Washington that proposes that the FCC should auction off the D-block frequencies, a part of which includes the 432 (440) MHz band.  Check out the most recent QST for more information, or go to the ARRL website at http://www.arrl.org/hr-607  .

I recommend that all NLRS members write their Representative to voice their opinion on this subject.  If you so wish, a very easy to use tool has been set up to assist us in this process.  Click on www.kd4pyr.net/hamletter.htm will generate a letter in opposition to this bill with instructions on how & where to send it.

PS:  The 432 Sprint Wednesday, April 27.

73, Jon
