[South Florida DX Association] Heads up/reminder on renewals

[Bill Marx]

>From the antenna list...Bill W2CQ


Hello All-

Yesterday's mail brought an official-looking envelope from the W5YI 
Group offering to renew my license for $7.00.  It is absolutely NOT 
necessary to use those people or anyone else like them (ARRL, et al.) 
and pay money to renew my license.  I checked the FCC website and it's 
still almost a month before the feds will even accept a renewal from me; 
my license expires mid-February next year.  When the FCC does accept my 
renewal (not earlier than 90 days before the due date), I can do it for 
free with a few mouse clicks over the net.

Just thought I would remind everyone of these facts.  Thanks for the 
soapbox!
