I think the manufacturer-disseminated membership rebate program is great.  My only wish is that the Board had been taken into the confidence of Staff so we wouldn’t seem to be such dummies when we saw the first rebate forms as we worked the ARRL booth at Hamvention.  I would hope that in the future we have developed enough trust within Staff that we could keep a business decision secret for a short time, especially under the circumstances that surrounded this situation.
