I concur with Joey on the ARRL web page, I often have referred out of 
towners to the site to find local ham clubs or find a testing site, 
1st. I was aware of the changes, was last week, when a friend in DFW 
area of Texas e-mailed: "Where do you find the information..?"

Just take a look & see for yourself, try to find your local ham club 
on the ARRL site, that I ham-fests used to have a link UP TOP in the 
page header, NOW you have to search...!

Seems the techie GEEKS have instilled the need for all kinds of Bells 
& Whistles with need to have the very latest version of Adobe Flash 
(Which incidentally is only in BETA STAGE, not the tried tested & 
proven final version..! (Just like auto manufacturers & their 
insistence on all kind of UNPROVEN digital interfaces that cause a 
vehicle to be in to shop because it wasn't working correctly, or was 
subject to some weird voltage spike that blew a transistor or diode 
that is so small, you could fit a hundred on the head of a pin..!

I digress, yielding the soap box,
