I and the OM (who is our local club's VHF/UHF SSB
guru) have worked hard at trying to get Techs involved with something
other
than repeater FM.

Why?


Because they have expressed dissatisfaction with repeater FM.

While we have had some modest success, it's only a small
percentage of the Techs who have jumped into these waters.

Have you asked them why they are reluctant to jump into those waters?


They are unwilling to commit to the equipment until they have their General,
not realizing how much fun they can have in the meantime.

Since they've not jumped in, does that change your attitude about them?


Nope, we just keep trying to find ways to let them know that there is much
more available to them than they realize.
