ARES subcommittee meeting notice to our Board Members: As chairman of the ARES Subcommittee of the ECFSC, I have scheduled our first ZOOM meeting -see below notice to that committee. I would like the whole board to know and to log in to listen if you like. I ask that non-committee members "mute" their video so that we can filter the meeting screen to subcommittee members only. Questions or comments to me directly before the meeting, or during the meeting if time permits, are welcomed from anyone.

I will have an agenda sent before then as I have received some good ideas from some of you. I have had some good phone calls and long conversations from some committee members and other board members about what our objectives should be this year. I am still open to suggestions before the meeting. Since this is a kick-off meeting for the year, I still want your ideas for topics and goals for this committee for 2024. If calling is easier, I am OK with that as Email is not the best way to conduct a conversation. If I am not in the office when you call, I will get back to you ASAP if you leave a message, so please do. You may need the passcode below to join the meeting. Schedule an hour time but I can stay and have reserved 2.5 hours on my Zoom account for after close of formal meeting chat. I am going to open this to other board members to listen in and maybe comment if time and orderliness of the meeting allow. See you then. Robert B. Famiglio, K3RF, is inviting you to a scheduled Zoom meeting. Topic: ECFSC ARES subcommittee Mtg.

The registration form should not be shared with anyone else. If you have a spouse, companion, or other family member accompanying you-and they're interested in volunteering with you-please have them complete a registration form, too (be sure they mention your participation, so we can associate their registration with your own).

[arrl-odv:35725] Confidential staff update
by Minster, David NA2AA (CEO) 18 Mar '24

18 Mar '24

As many of you know, Bob, W5OV has had recent surgeries that he's having issues with. These issues have affected him inside and outside the organization. He has decided that the best path is to retire to take care of his medical issues and return to TX where he can be with his kids and grandchildren. This is disappointing for me personally as I have known Bob since high school and expected that we'd be working many more years together. We will be looking for someone with strong management experience who also has strong radiosport credentials to fill his shoes. Any suggestions would be welcome. David

[arrl-odv:35723] From today's INVESTING.com magazine in re spectrum reallocation.
by Famiglio, Bob, K3RF (Dir, AD) 12 Mar '24

12 Mar '24

I know we are aware of the review announced last November, but this is ominous. "On Monday, two senators proposed legislation to require NTIA to identify at least 2,500 megahertz of mid-band spectrum that could be reallocated from federal government use to non-governmental or shared use over the next 5 years. The articles talks about commercial carriers needing more spectrum for consumer use. No surprise, but the train is coming. Short article - worth a look. https://www.investing.com/news/stock-market-news/us-unveils-roadmap-to-stud… Bob Famiglio, K3RF ARRL Atlantic Division Director 610-359-7300 www.QRZ.com/db/K3RF
