Hello Jim; The preferred method that I have used is the credit card informationwritten on the renewal form. I would say that about one person in 10 prefersto use cash, another two in ten use checks. When handling the renewals in cash it does take the extra step to convert the cash into a money order. I have never "sold" a membership at a hamfest or convention by useof the online method. 73, Kermit W9XA From: Northwestern Div.

For credit card new/renew membership applications, do you ever use online method? (using the Join/Renew button on the ARRL homepage) Thanks for your help 73 and good Hamming Jim Pace, K7CEXARRL the National Association for Amateur RadioNorthwestern DivisionDirector _______________________________________________ arrl-odv mailing list arrl-odv@reflector.arrl.org https://reflector.arrl.org/mailman/listinfo/arrl-odv
