From: Lee Richardson <RICHARDSON.B@USC-ISIF.ARPA> The onslaught of the two 220-Mhz petitions brings home to me at least the difficulty for almost all of us in responding QUICKLY to proposals to change the Amateur rules. In a previous message (forwarded kindly by Keith Petersen) I suggested that (more accurately, wondered out loud) the FCC Notices be somehow made available electronically, via, say, BBoard systems or electronic mailing lists such as this one. I propose that the ARRL might be in a good position to provide such a service. I for one would be willing to endure yet another dues increase to finance the service; or, if that were not popular (impacting most members while perhaps only a few would use the service), paying a reasonable charge for using the service. Hopefully providing the service would not be construed as "lobbying" (this would be a SERIOUS problem if it were...). Comments? /Lee Richardson W6RFK Richardson.B@ISIF -------
