Dear members of the ARRL Board Family, With the time I can use ODV becoming increasingly shorter, I thought I would let you each know how much you have touched and enriched my life during the time we have shared on the Board. I feel very fortunate to be able to count you each as a friend. Together, I believe you constitute as great a group of people as there could be. My main loss in retiring from the Board is that I will no longer see or have contact with you on a regular basis. My second main regret in retiring is that I will be worth 150 points rather than 225 as a Centennial QSO Party contact!! Hi! CU on the bands. All the best for a happy and useful future. 73, Jim Jim Weaver, K8JE Director, Great Lakes Division 5065 Bethany Rd.
