The fcc has an avenue where ideas for change, restructuring and progress
can be introduced.

In the past, the ARRL seems to quickly leap to the forefront of this
process, claim they represent all amateurs and lobby for the issues in the
way they would them implemented... a vast influx of new people may be
able to knock that strangle hold which a few at the bottle-neck were able
to achieve--loose... change appears on the way, time will tell... after
decades of decline and stagnation, cures are not to had over-night.

It will take an organized group to do this though. People have two choices.
One is to join the ARRL and change it to pursue the policies near and dear
to their own hearts. The second choice is to form a new group that is large
enough and organized enough to lobby for what is near and dear to their own
hearts. Just saying the ARRL should change won't do it.
