I didn't realize his term was up in June, any rumors on whether he will be reappointed? -- Tom ===== e-mail: k1ki@arrl.org ARRL New England Division Director http://www.arrl.org/ Tom Frenaye, K1KI, P O Box J, West Suffield CT 06093 Phone: 860-668-5444

Tom, I personally believe it is unlikely that even if nominated for another term, he would stay for the full term. FCC Chairmen don't make a lot of money by professional Washington standards, he's relatively young, and his personal interests lie in returning to the private sector while he still has influence . Here's some recent informed speculation: http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/in-the-loop/post/fcc-chair-genachows ki-looks-to-stay-put/2013/02/25/723475f6-7f5c-11e2-a350-49866afab584_blo g.html Dave -----Original Message----- From: arrl-odv-bounces@reflector.arrl.org [mailto:arrl-odv-bounces@reflector.arrl.org] On Behalf Of Tom Frenaye Sent: Thursday, March 07, 2013 1:18 PM To: arrl-odv Subject: [arrl-odv:21609] FCC Chair An article about FCC Chairman Genachowski's presentation at MIT this week. http://www.informationweek.com/government/mobile/fcc-chairman-outlines-p lans-to-free-up-s/240150236 I didn't realize his term was up in June, any rumors on whether he will be reappointed? -- Tom ===== e-mail: k1ki@arrl.org ARRL New England Division Director http://www.arrl.org/ Tom Frenaye, K1KI, P O Box J, West Suffield CT 06093 Phone: 860-668-5444 _______________________________________________ arrl-odv mailing list arrl-odv@reflector.arrl.org http://reflector.arrl.org/mailman/listinfo/arrl-odv
