[Wma-ares] An update

[Chuck Chandler]

Good afternoon, all -

Last month I was diagnosed with a treatable variant of leukemia.  My
prognosis is very good, I am responding well to the medication after the
first month of unpleasant side effects.  Going forward I am expected to
live a normal life, with only the need for a daily pill and frequent blood
tests.

After discussing this with Ray, our Section Manager,  I have decided to
delegate some of the tasks I had been doing.  This seems to be a prudent
way forward, particularly if my health should change.

Effective immediately, our ASEC Gil, WK1H, will take primary responsibility
for membership and the database.  He is intimately familiar with these
functions, so please make sure any prospective members or persons with
membership or database questions are pointed to him.  He may be reached at
gilwk1h at gmail.com.

Also, our SM has agreed to appoint John Rokicki, KC1VMZ, as our new ASEC
for Net Operations.  John has been very active in voice and digital nets
and will bring a new perspective to increasing net participation and
usefulness.  Please point anyone with net questions or ideas to him.  I am
asking that all net managers and net control stations copy John on your net
activity reports going forward.  He may be reached at kc1vmz at gmail.com.

Please join me in congratulating John on his new appointment!

Finally, my thanks to each of you for everything you do.  I appreciate you
and look forward to working with you going forward.
