I'm sure that there are those who might disagree with the tactic, but I don't see how the petition could hurt. I've heard the discussion... is Congress and the FCC (and are we) actually waiting to see what happens in an activist lawsuit to make a decision on an OTARD measure for amateur radio? If it comes down against RF, will the industry fold and shutdown 5G? We know that won't happen. How does decades of research on biological effects of RF get set aside by an activist with a famous name? I hear about HOA restrictions almost every day. Our members need to see some action - at least the Change.org petitioner is doing something visible. Someone give us a good reason we should join this petition or put together something similar that works in our favor, or I expect our members will find board members who will.

I am hoping we can have a bill introduced soon, at least. Ria N2RJ
