Hi Kent,
 
Same sentiment in many places in the Midwest Division.  Iowa was one of the “hold out” sections in addition to WI, IL, and I believe EPA.
 
I’m not sure if the Repeater Directory took input ONLY from the repeater coordinators.  Dave can tell us.  I mistakenly thought (as well as some of the complainers) that the repeater directory only published coordinated repeaters – but that’s not so.
 
I think there is a lot of mis-information floating around so I think it would be good for someone to lay out the facts.  I think they have a valid point in that all these changes are taking place without any input or consultation with the coordinators – or so it seems.

Friends;

Attached is the latest Minnesota Repeater Council newsletter.  In it, the Chair proceeds to push the ARRL in front of the bus as it were.  I did speak with him regarding RFinder and his concerns, but obviously it did no good.  Have others on this reflector had similar calls, concerns, diatribes, etc.?  I think we need some talking points and perhaps a story on the website to get our stance out.  Any other thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

73!
