I think the ‘issue’ is whether ARRL HQ looks to be ‘promoting’ the event/presentation or not.

This isn’t intended to shut those running for office down!  Go crush it!!!  Go online, go to in person events, wear your badge proudly, etc. etc.

It is ONLY about the perception that ARRL HQ (which is what I am responsible for) is in some way promoting a candidate or playing favorites, etc.

Interesting thread.

I was just getting ready to submit my proposed presentation to QSO Today about doing HF mobile from a Cessna 170B. The Central Division has elections this year, so as it stands right now I guess I won't submit this.

I'm also scheduled to give many Zoom and in-person presentations after July 1 mostly about solar and propagation topics to clubs/conventions in the Central Division and elsewhere. Several of the big ones are W8DXCC in late August, W9DXCC in mid September and the Antenna Applications Symposium (Univ of Illinois/Penn State) in late September. What about these?
