CEO Minster, CFO Middleton

    On October 26, 2023 Vice Director Yonally brought to our attention the apparent violation of ARRL trademarks [arrl-odv:35290].

    In an email of the same day [arrl-odv:35291] I noted that the misuse of our marks needed to referred immediately to our DC Trademark counsel for action, including the issuance of a cease and desist notice, and possibly enforcement action if an appropriate response was not forthcoming. Later that day I amended the recommendation to include issuing a take down notice to Namecheap, the hosting ISP for the website used by the vendor [[arrl-odv:35291].

    Director Lippert, on the same day, supported the recommended action [arrl-odv:35298].

    Please advise as to when and what, if any, action has been taken to address the matter.

    Thanks.
