Jim, I've finally been able to make the time to review the Chwat proposal. I think it is great. I am sure that when we review it very closely, we might have relatively minor fine-tunings to make, but I could buy into as is. Good job. Jim W.

It can be more than one and what I am thinking of is also involving the Section Managers. It is no secret that I have been disappointed in the amount of grass root contacts our members have had with congressional representatives. I had asked John Chwat & Company to prepare a paper that would help us and it is below as a zip file. Print it out and let me know what you think. 73 Jim Haynie, W5JBP
