I hear this complaint often from new members, at hamfests and elsewhere. I should note that this member HAS been getting QST. Is there a better procedure for acknowledging new membership applications? 73, Frank, W4RH ******************************************************************* Date: Wed, 11 Jan 2006 12:30:21 -0600 From: Brutus temple <ki4kfw@cox.net> Hello Frank: This is Bruce ki4kfw.
