Good summary. I had e-mail from four people about the "controversy". I decided to call each of them tonight instead of just sending an e-mail reply. I was able to reach three of them and had some good conversations, then forwarded them Dave's summary information.
The one thing each of them said in one way or another is that we needed to get the word out on what we did, and in reply to the recent Internet comments.
I assume there will be a web article available in the morning. I hope we'll see our information on the various e-mail groups also.
As fast as we were able to handle this, I think we need to be able to respond more quickly to things like this in the future - the reality is that some real damage can be done by those who want to flame ARRL.
