We're particuarly interested in supporting volunteers that want to use ARRL branded materials for use at hamfests and conventions, club meetings, local recruitment opportunities, or at events where ham radio is used in public service. Following a survey we conducted earlier this year, we found that the most frequently requested items are banners, tabletop exhibits, and trinket give-aways. We intend to have all of these items available for ordering before the end of the year. We've just introduced a new ARRL banner. It's 3 x 8 feet, and printed on a high-quality fabric (nylon). Amy identified a vendor that was able to keep down the manufacturing cost--which I think is suprisingly reasonable for the quality of this banner. It's similar in design to the banners used by ARRL at our exhibit in Dayton each year. The retail price is $50 plus shipping. We've included no profit margin in this product, so there are no discounts. You'll find it on the web in 2 locations...the e-store and our event exhibit materials site: http://www.arrl.org/catalog/?item=1302 http://www.arrl.org/brochures/ Bob
