On Monday afternoon the ARRL's 100th anniversary received coverage on National Public Radio's "All Things Considered." You can hear the clip at http://www.npr.org/2014/05/26/316110359/celebrating-100-years-of-ham-radio?… Last Friday Connecticut Public Radio carried a different story by the same reporter, Patrick Skahill, that dealt more with the historical aspect: http://wnpr.org/post/history-and-science-ham-radio Dave K1ZZ

[arrl-odv:22718] RM-11708 comments
by Brian Mileshosky 27 May '14

27 May '14

Chris - I see that comments are still being posted on FCC's ECFS regarding RM-11708, the latest having been posted yesterday (23 May). Clearly outside of the established comment periods. How do these impact (or not) FCC's decision making process? Is FCC permitted to consider them at all, or give them any kind of equivalent weight as those comments/replies received within their own published (and presumably enforced) comment periods? 73, Brian N5ZGT

I just viewed this program, and found the section by Gordo, WB6NOA, to be most interesting. Apparently ARES is being phased out. Take a look starting at 0:07:00 for the latest word. http://twit.tv/show/ham-nation/148 73, Bob -- W6RGG

[arrl-odv:22701] Centennial QSL cards

I had it in my archive 73, Harold ---------------------------------------------------- Was there ever an answer to Bill’s question? I can’t seem to find it in my archive. Doug K4AC Regards/73, Harold From: Shelley, Barry, N1VXY Sent: Wednesday, February 19, 2014 9:45 AM To: Kramer, Harold, WJ1B; Edgar, William, N3LLR Cc: Inderbitzen, Bob, NQ1R Subject: RE: [arrl-odv:22442] Fwd: for ARRL Board and Section Managers: ARRL Centennial QSL cards We’ve always allowed QSL cards for Directors/Vice Directors to be charged to Division budgets so I don’t see why that should change. However, since the e-store functionality was created for retail transactions it does not include the facility to order and charge things to Division budgets automatically. There are only two ways I can think of to accomplish this. Have the Directors order on-line, pay for it and then get reimbursed through the normal process or, set up a special procedure in Sales and Marketing so they can call and order them so they can be charged directly to the Division budget. I’ve included Bob Inderbitzen on this note as he would have to be involved in setting up a procedure for Sales and Marketing if we took that route. 73, Barry J.
