[arrl-odv:13883] FW: To Officers and Department Heads - New Membership Manager Announcements
by Kramer, Harold, WJ1B 11 Mar '06

11 Mar '06

FYI Harold ________________________________ From: Motschenbacher, Dennis K7BV Sent: Fri 3/10/2006 4:06 PM To: Mills, Wayne N7NG; Patton, David NN1N; Bloom, Jon, KE3Z; Ford, Steve, WB8IMY; Hare, Ed W1RFI; Shelley, Barry, N1VXY; Campanello, LouAnn; Somma, Maria, AB1FM; Hobart, Mary K1MMH; Rinaldo, Paul Cc: Sumner, Dave, K1ZZ; Kramer, Harold, WJ1B; Breen,Katie Subject: To Officers and Department Heads - New Membership Manager Announcements I am pleased to announce that Katie Breen has accepted our offer to join the ARRL management team effective Monday March 13th. While not a callsign holder just yet, as a teen Katie spent time on the roof of her home helping her father put up antennas. Katie's brother is a ham - as a matter of fact, he is the first new member that she can say she brought to table! Katie comes with plenty of marketing and analytical experience as well as a robust history working with volunteers. She has "walked the talk" by taking on the challenges of starting her own business - a business that required acute awareness of client needs. Katie is a high energy positive person with plenty of "street" smarts that will fit into the Sales & Marketing management style very nicely I will send a message similar to this to HQ Staff Monday AM before I start bringing her around to meet all of you and your staff. By the way, we will be taking a slow approach to introducing Katie to public. We want Katie to immediately go to work on some very pressing membership recruitment initiatives and do not want her to become distracted by a lot of direct membership contact just yet. Regards, Dennis Motschenbacher K7BV

[arrl-odv:13882] FW: FCC to Break Up Wireless Bureau
by Sumner, Dave, K1ZZ 10 Mar '06

This commentary is from Mitchell Lazarus, who represents a number of Part 15 interests (including Current Technologies). Dave K1ZZ ________________________________ From: Mitchell Lazarus [mailto:lazarus@fhhlaw.com] Sent: Fri 3/10/2006 11:24 PM Subject: FCC to Break Up Wireless Bureau The FCC open meeting on Friday, March 17, will take up the following item (among others): TITLE: Establishment of the Public Safety and Homeland Security Bureau SUMMARY: The Commission will consider an Order creating a Public Safety and Homeland Security Bureau and amending the rules to reflect the function of this Bureau. (FCC announcement ends; my commentary begins) This new bureau is expected to take over some of the functions of the present Wireless Telecommunications Bureau. Its formation has been many months in the making. Many of us hope that this step will finally make it possible for the Chairman to appoint permanent chiefs to both the new bureau and what is left of the old one, and then to break up the long-standing log-jam of proceedings backed up in the bureau. Hw fast this happens will depend in large part on how soon the new chiefs take office.

10 Mar '06

Greetings. Mr. Frenaye reminds me that, in the almost suicidal effort to get ready for the Executive Committee meeting this weekend, I forgot to send my EC report to the Board, as I am obligated to do. Here it is, thanks for the reminder, Tom. 73, Chris W3KD/0 (in the smallest Marriott room ever known in the history of Marriott hotels)

IN-Newsletter Vol. 29, No.10 March 8, 2006 -- Covers the period February 26-March 4. Upcoming Meetings & Events Executive Committee March 11 in St. Louis, MO Skywarn Training April 7 in Newington, CT Administrative and Finance Committee April 29 in Newington, CT CEO As most of you are aware that John Hennessee passed way. He will be deeply missed amongst all his friends in the building and in the CEO office, in which he was a valuable asset. We are waiting to hear back from John's church. There will be a Memorial Service for John but his Reverend is away and will be back on 3/20. Lisa Kustosik will keep you informed. If you have any questions please feel free to call her at ext.245. Development The Diamond Club continues to grow with 140 new donors being added since the beginning of the year with average gifts remaining on or near targets. Renewal response and average renewal contribution remain strong for the first two months of the year. The total Diamond Club database has reached 1987 donors. The carryover from the Fall 2006 Defense campaign has exceeded its budgeted goal and reached $42,388. The spring 2006 campaign is on schedule to mail March 24 to ARRL members. The Education & Technology Program has attracted $27,323 so far in 2006. Requests have been mailed to 11 donors requesting support for the five 2006 Teachers Institute. No responses so far. A full campaign to support operations of the Education & Technology Program is scheduled for May. Carryover donations from the 2005 Year End campaign have topped $9,400. The test campaign to a targeted audience of 10,000 members with interest in emergency communications has raised $1,860 from 28 donors. A wonderful piece on the ARRL website and in the ARRL letter may boost response. A proposal to CNCS for reallocation of unspent funds from the Katrina grant has been submitted. After a positive response on Capitol Hill to a request for $500,000 in the federal FY 07 budget for a Bio Chem Nuclear training course for ham radio, Development worked with Zach DeWaters to craft a letter of support. The processing of scholarship applications for the 2006 ARRL Foundation awards is well underway. Media & Public Relations One week until the unveiling of the Hello campaign and already I am being swamped with requests for more info, brochures and PSAs. Messages were sent to clubs and SM's to be sure that they are aware of it and have opportunity to update their listings if they desire. The hello-radio website is ready for beta testing. The brochure is being printed as I write this. Two audio PSAs are on hand and the video is due the end of the month. Bob I has ordered the stickers and buttons. Short texts on "Why I love ham radio" have been gathered from around the country and Italy. Some longer pieces on "Where will ham radio be in 2016?" are being gathered from prominent people by PR Committee member Bob Weinstock, W3RQ. Kevin O'Dell, N0IRW, will be coordinating the creation of a longer video for groups and broadcast. Ray Novak of Icom has offered to give some DX clips for that use. CONTACT! was posted and a special edition is planned for about 3/16 when the April QST hits the mailboxes. Arrangements have been made to pitch it at the NAB and RTNDA. There have been several discussions with television and broadcast radio people already who will help in the PSA distributions. A special email address hello(a)arrl.org has been created to handle the requests for materials. The PR committee is prepared to present the campaign at hamfests and other venues to clubs for their local uses. While there are still many last minute strings to tie up, it's ready to launch. Production/Editorial Rick Lindquist reports The ARRL Letter, Vol. 25, No. 09, distributed Mar 3 to 66,155 members. Rick prepared/edited the Web youth column, a report with photos on the Ham Aid Go Kits Harry Abery is assembling, appointments to the National Emergency Response Planning Committee, FCC info on renewal of vanity call signs, ARRL reaction to Motorola "white paper" on its Powerline LV BPL system, FCC enforcement, Army MARS-Winlink 2000 partnership, ARISS school group contacts in Japan and Washington, DC, and several news briefs and announcements. He also covered, via teleconference, ARISS school group QSOs in Ohio and North Carolina for a report this week. With soundbite assistance from Mary Hobart, Rick voiced, edited and produced ARRL Audio News for Mar 3. Lab BPL To offload some of the load on the Lab staff, notably Ed Hare, the ARRL has contracted an EMC consultant, Cortland Richmond, KA5S, to do routine updates to the ARRL BPL web pages. Over the past week, he has added descriptions for a number of BPL-related articles that have appeared in the lay and amateur press. He also has added a number of scientific papers and presentations to the links for those respective pages. At this point, Ed reports that he has dumped his backlog on Cortland, who will continue to funnel the updates back to HQ. Cortland's next project will be to identify all the other BPL sites worldwide, mine them for information, and update ARRL's web page with more links to audio and video recordings of interference. Ed is scheduled to give a presentation on BPL at an upcoming New England chapter meeting of the Power Engineering Society. This will be held at the facilities of the Electric Power Research Institute in Lowell, MA. Ed will go from there to the ANSI C63 meetings in Piscataway, NJ, followed immediately by the IEEE Electromagnetic Society Standards Development Committee meetings at the same location. RFI Book Mike Gruber worked on soliciting an author for the RFI Book. Vacations Zack and Mary Lau spent some time vacationing in Kulpsville PA, to attend the SWL Winterfest. Many of the International Shortwave broadcasters stayed away this year, apparently due to concerns about what they could bring to the conference. Sales & Marketing April QST advertising exceed budget by approximately $1,000. The Business Services team began work on the layout of the tear-out for May 2006 QST and regular QST advertising. The tear-out is currently very close to target with several advertisers possibly coming in. A longtime dealer, Amateur Radio Toy Store, will be advertising in QST for the first time in May, along with Bob Cooper, K6EDX/ZL4AAA promoting his new book and PCP-POOL. Tennadyne has returned to QST. We took advantage of a free ham radio recruitment listing in the 2006 Sailboat Buyers Guide, now on the streets. Prospective Ham Packages in February: 31. Online Courses Requests for EmComm Honor Roll certificates are rolling in--over 200 received so far (this item was offered in March QST, page 20). In February we enrolled 170 students (EmComm - 126, Technical -25, Technician License Course - 19).

Contest Branch The QST announcements for the June VHF QSO party and Field Day were prepared and sent to Production. We received the QST version of the 2005 November SS CW results article, which was prepared and sent to Production. Data entry for the January VHF Sweepstakes continued. Log Checking reports for November Sweepstakes were received and queued for Web Services to make available when the results are opened to members. The web databases were created for both 2005 Phone and CW Sweepstakes and sent to Web Services for processing for the web. The 2005 EME online results were sent to Production and opened to the membership. In addition, the PDF of the QST article for the EME results with line scores was prepared and posted for the public. Logbook of the World QSO records entered into the system 93,419,795 QSL records have resulted 5,003,921 Logs Processed 195,762 Active Certificates 17,761 Users registered in the system 11,774 Hybrids Pending Mail 90 QSL Branch There is a 4 day processing time delay. This week, 136 pounds of cards were received from members. The next mailing is scheduled for Friday, March 24, 2006. Field & Educational Services Field Organization/Public Service Team Chuck Skolaut compiled and forwarded the monthly ARRL Monitoring System report to the IARU Region 2 coordinator. More follow-up documentation was forwarded to the FCC regarding an earlier monitoring request on 75 meters. Supporting written information and a CD concerning interference to a local 2 meter repeater in California was sent to the FCC as well as two separate submissions by e-mail about other problems occurring on that band. Intruder reports this week show two different radar-type signals, one on 15 meters and the other on the 20 meter CW band, thought to be from a SuperDARN installation. A strong, pulsed type signal on 40 meters is being investigated in the southeastern part of the United States. After the ARRL Web news article appeared about the ARRL Ham Aid-sponsored "Go Kits," the Section Emergency Coordinators have been discussing on their reflector these new resources and similar ones and what it all might mean to ham radio response capabilities during a large-scale emergency. Steve Ewald has been assisting ARES Emergency Coordinators with information and resources for upcoming local presentations to community groups and potential served agencies. William Dale, N2RHV, of Milpitas, has been nominated to run for Section Manager of Santa Clara Valley. Although the receipt deadline for SM petitions is March 10, we already know there will be elections in Illinois, Northern Florida and Santa Clara Valley. Leona Adams has been gathering information from each candidate for their statements. Over 20 new appointments have been entered into the Field Organization data base and a number of section budget expense forms have been processed. ARISS PR: A check of the QRZ.COM Web site shows that the call sign NA1SS has been looked up 7,032 times since October 2000, and that RS0ISS has been looked up 3,060 times. Media covering the Itaki QSO included 2 newspapers and 5 TV stations; Echolink had 16 connections from these countries: Japan, UK, USA, Thailand, Russia, Holland. Rosalie assisted OH SM Phillips with backgrounder on ARISS; he spoke with reporters at a Cincinnati school, resulting in a nice story in the Enquirer. For ARRL Members: about 500 people reported hearing SuitSat's transmissions. SuitSat records show that it transmitted greetings about 3500 times. The Web site had nearly 10 million hits as of Feb 28. Rosalie and Steve E networked about go-kits that hams at NASA Stennis Space Center want to set up. ARISS News Update: Three astronauts will take their ham exam next week. Three other astronauts plan to take their exam in the coming weeks. The Russian Team has finished training the Exp 13 crew on how to use the radio equipment. The ISS crew should be able to see SuitSat a number of times in the next few weeks; we will ask if they can photograph it if they have good camera lenses, and if the passes aren't during sleep times (km between them should be about 10-15). ARISS' Effect on Schools/Students: Audio from the Engineering Day QSO was fed through IRLP to six Canadian Girl Guides troops, their parents and leaders who were operating in "Girl Guides on the Air." International Aspects: ESA astronaut Marcos Pontes' training with the radios is going well, and he wants to do a lot of random QSOs.

He also answered 100 ARISS QSL request. Amateur Radio Education & Technology Program-Mark Spencer I completed my review and critique of the Braille Nemeth Code Course for Hadley School for the Blind. The equipment for the latest round of Project Grants is being delivered to the schools. A few schools had problems implementing their intended programs but they are getting things in order. Their grants will be executed in the next round if they complete the required steps to get ready for the grants. The Project Schools list of the current active schools on the web has now been updated to reflect the added schools. The modulation demonstration board information has been submitted for posting on the web, the kits are ready for school requests. The ohms law board development continues and is approaching the production phase. I have an article published in the March issue of CQ Magazine. A final draft of a TI announcement article for May QST has been completed. I have 16 credible applications in hand for the teachers institutes to date. A number of inquiries about the program have been fielded this week. What is interesting is that a number of the inquiries were generated from Google web searches. I am not sure what key words the teachers are using to get to the information, but word seems to be spreading. I still have the major publication push to come during the April NSTA conference.
