Wilson you are absolutely right. Everyone should be a member of the league, if it weren't for the ARRL we wouldn't have ham radio, the Navy tried to take control of everything radio in 1919 and it was Maxium's work that stopped it. Over the years there have been many attempts to kill ham radio or at least take away big portions of or bands. If you're not a member of the ARRL, PLEASE join, we need them to be strong so they can protect us.
