As someone who has been interviewed dozens of times - on a variety of subjects - I know that no matter how hard you try, there will always be some sort of error or miscommunication.  While there are things that could be added and misperceptions that could be corrected, I suggest we just chalk this up a PR "win".

 

I have tried - unsuccessfully - over time to get the Dominion Post to print ANYTHING about ham radio or our club.  Finally, we have a reporter who took an interest in us and wrote up a nice piece that is positive and promotional.  My feeling is that we not worry about any inaccuracies and be tankful for what we have.  Maybe this is a relationship we can build upon.

 

Just my two cents.

 

Best regards,

Cory, WA3UVV

Let me state this, some of the information or all of it is factual, but the reporter got the names of some of the comments wrong.

 

Whoever said, what they said know who they are.  If you want to let me know who said what, I am sure we can get them to make corrections.
