I don't mind the idea that someone will be walking on bricks engraved with
the call of a silent key. I mind the idea that the League will take a 35
cent brick, engrave it and charge someone a couple of hundred bucks to
place it someplace where the donor will likely never have a chance to enjoy
his pricey purchase. Since Mary Hobart (K1 More Money Honey) came aboard,
the ARRL has been all about raising money through a number of elitist
schemes.

I have some bricks and I just put up another tower. I think I'll buy a
little sand, use my Dremel tool and engrave the callsigns of silent keys
whom I remember fondly. I can place the bricks around the concrete tower
base and look at 'em any time I choose.

Dave:

I am not a fan of many things the ARRL does, but I really don't see the
objection to this scheme. It is not like the ARRL is fooling anyone.
