Some of them work for the Madisonville Independent

block anything related to amateur radio as "entertainment".
When I try to accesswww.arrl.org, I get a message
saying it is blocked because it is "entertainment".
A school system that blocks anything associated
with amateur radio is in very sad shape.

Cecil, amateur radio is a national SERVICE!

Would you call the military "entertainment?"

Connect the dots.
