[arrl-odv:35084] WSJ on The SMC Proposal & Ham Radio
by John Robert Stratton 06 Aug '23

06 Aug '23

All See the enclosed Wall Street Journal article that discusses the SMC proposal & Ham Radio. Although there are those amongst us who have opined "The amateur radio community reaction to the SMC proposal is completely disproportional to the risk", that sentiment is not prevalent amongst our Members. _______________________________________ John Robert Stratton N5AUS Director West Gulf Division Office:512-445-6262 Cell:512-426-2028 P.O.

[arrl-odv:35056] Forgot to mention in my minutes suggestions
by Art Zygielbaum 03 Aug '23

03 Aug '23

One substantive suggestion I forgot to point out is that in Minute 16, it says "He discussed the Shortwave Modernization Coalition and stated that it was heading the right direction." I think it should say "...not heading in the right direction." Carl? Art -- Arthur I.
