Re: [Repeater-Builder] Site Insurance Vendors

Yeah I know. I just didn't want to depress people further. If you have "considerable assets", of any kind -- being a club leader is inherently a very risky position to put yourself in, financially -- now that corporate rules regarding liability of organizations have been eviscerated. Tha

RE: [Repeater-Builder] Site Insurance Vendors

Usually when some one signs a waiver letter, it is not worth the ink that it is written with. You cannot assign your rights away before something happens, it usually means you have just admitted liability with them signing the letter. It might slow down litigation by about 5 minutes, but does no

p.s. Consider that 1M/3M is very little coverage now that the law has changed and the LLC doesn't fully protect the individual officers from having their personal assets seized to pay the company's liability payments, if they were negligent. Talk carefully both to your insurer and also to your Boa

RE: [Repeater-Builder] Site Insurance Vendors

ARRL has always worked with insurance vendors (Marsh & Associates?) to provide decently-priced liability coverage. Sometimes you can beat them, sometimes you can't. Liability coverage GENERALLY seems to fall in a small band between vendors, unless your organization or you has previous judgments a
