Thanks Dave,
Agree wholeheartedly !! I'm a Life Member for over 40yrs and certainly
received 1000 times more than I paid !! Not sure what happened but I did
solicit help and got some but it sort of fell off the edge of the earth. The
FCC informal complaint process was all I had left.
Brad, N8GLS

Absolutely correct-- however a new person should feel he/she has a resource in
the ARRL as well, then they can, and should join!
