Except it didn't come out of Newington - it's the result of the BoD's vote. And the BoD are from all over the country, elected by the members. True indeed. However, it would be interesting to see how much "membership" actually participated a) in the election of the BoD and b) how much--because of that--the ARRL's decisions are actually influenced by a majority of US Amateur Radio Operators. Nothing wrong with the concept that the BoD represents someone, but who they represent is those members of whom decide to actually be active in the goings-on of the ARRL; and I don't think many do. Any numbers on that? Why single out the ARRL? Almost every organization and our national political scene is the same way. A few active people get out and vote. A few active people get out and do the work. These are the people who always have and always will shape policy. Yet those who are unwilling to vote or do the work continually whine about how they are not represented. It is the same thing throughout our society. The ARRL is not unique. Dee D. Flint, N8UZE |
