Ladies & Gentlemen:

 

In January, Rick Roderick and Jim Pace asked me to make more effort to “speak to members.” As a first step, Sean Kutzko and Becky Schoenfeld commissioned a one-minute video promo released on our website and through our YouTube channel which Becky dubbed 60-Second Century, a preview of the QST Magazine Second Century editorial’s content in the current month. Two weeks ago, Sean and I, along with ARRL’s contract videographer, Tony Tyson [shown in the attached photo] traversed the New England Scenic Trail at 600 feet after a snowfall to make the below-linked video. Snow and ice-covered rock is no country for old men. But here it is. If these videos get some hits after a few months, we will sustain the effort and perhaps, more useful, try the same thing for other publication topics. Hopefully, it helps place a human face on ARRL.
