Last week we did a soft launch of the first three member forums on the website, by adding "Forums" to the directory on the left side of the page. There were no glitches, so this week we will be announcing their availability (see below). This implements item B2 from the Strategic Plan. Dave K1ZZ ARRL Launches Online Forums To assist ARRL members in communicating with one another and with ARRL staff on topics of common interest, three forums have been established on the League's Web site. Visit www.arrl.org/forums to chat with fellow hams about contesting, awards and technology. Additional forums are planned once we have gained some experience with these three. Guest members and others can view the threads, but in order to participate in the conversations or ask questions you must be logged in as a member. All users should read the Rules <http://webtest.arrlhq.org/forum/home/rules> before they participate.
