by Sumner, Dave, K1ZZ 02 Jan '14

It's official: we finished 2013 with 162,215 members, an increase of 1,937 or 1.2% over yearend 2012. That's the seventh straight year of membership growth. I hope we can make it eight straight in our Centennial Year. Division breakdowns are not yet available. The attached banner in the HQ lobby says it all! 73, Dave K1ZZ

[arrl-odv:22195] 17 Report of the Ethics and Elections Committee for 2013
by G Widin 02 Jan '14

02 Jan '14

Attached is the report of the E&E Committee for this past year. The main item of note for the Board is the low voter turnout in the last two years. Associated with this is the high cost per-election when there are few contested positions. Mr. Sumner also intends to discuss the latter topic in his own Board report. Both these issues are clearly identified in our report. Please direct any questions to the E&E--myself, Cliff Ahrens or Dennis Bodson. Finally, I'd like to thank the rest of the committee and Mr. Sumner for their diligent and quick response when E&E was faced with the need for quick decisions last year. 73, Greg Widin, K0GW 2013 Ethics and Electrions Chair

[arrl-odv:22185] W100AW
by Sumner, Dave, K1ZZ 02 Jan '14

The first 19 hours of operation from Newington as W100AW yielded 3,700 QSOs. Coupled with a great start for the W1AW portable operations (especially from North Carolina) and terrific activity in the Centennial QSO Party -- including sterling appearances by many Board members -- the ARRL's 100th anniversary is off to a rollicking beginning! 73, Dave K1ZZ

Apologies to Rick and the rest of you – apparently I was premature because access is not yet available outside the building. We’re still at the testing/debugging stage. There will be an announcement when it’s available.
