John, just WHO DO you consider a friend of amateur radio. In your
response, please limit your discussion to the organization that IS a
friend of amateur

1. Their recent attempt at Regulation by Bandwidth which was a transparent
attempt to make more room
I wonder if the people making anti-ARRL statements have even bothered to
talk to any of the ARRL officials? And if not, why not? I met Joel W5ZN
at the Dayton VHF banquet last year (2006). What a great guy! I've had
numerous chats with Dave K1ZZ. I always seem to cross paths with my

Does anyone have an e-mail address for Brian, ZD9BCB ? I'm familiar
with his operation at the upper end of 20M SSB around 1700Z, but
that's not a good place to discuss a possible low-band sked. But I
suspect any internet link on Gough Island is probably via Inmarsat,
so very expensive for any

SUCCESSFUL QSLing
de HS0ZCW
Steps in sending a direct QSL to a DX station:
1. Obtain correct address via qrz.com or use the GO List for QSL manager
addresses, or search the Web via Google.
2. Consult the DX stations web site or web information for special
instructions (such as direct only,
OK, well, let's see here:
(1) Regulation by bandwith. Poorly written, poorly explained, IMHO,
something I did mention to my Division Director prior to the petition
withdrawl. I think that the intent of the petition was to (a) allow US
amateurs the flexibility that amateurs in most of the rest
I wrote this below, and what I meant was that :
If you send a QSL to manager, there should not be
any need to read the K4VUD statement. You have
to trust that the QSL-manager is not completely
