Jim, it's $3, not $2. Membership staff is working on a plan and response. Given that it doesn't take effect for more than 11 months I'd rather we get it right the first time. March QST wraps up today. I'm working on the editorial this afternoon, then will tackle the Board meeting minutes that Dave Patton has drafted. You'll all see the revised draft after that, i.e. before the Board meeting results are made public.

To the Board (me included) this is merely a $2/year change. To others, the longer it goes unreported, it becomes "another" example of ARRL managing the news to try to hide information. I'd just as soon take my lumps for the $2/year without having extra lumps kicked in for being seen as being devious. Just a suggestion. 73, Jim Jim Weaver, K8JE, Director ARRL Great Lakes Division 5065 Bethany Rd. Mason, OH 45040 E-mail: k8je@arrl.org; Tel.: 513-459-0142 ARRL - The Reason Amateur Radio Is!
