I include an introductory email along with the invoice to all incoming members. It gives them options for payment of dues through either credit card or check. It also gives them the URL of where to signup for the lists including the [EMAIL PROTECTED] list if they are Principle Members. Once they signup and I see that they are paid then I approve their subscription request. I do not automatically subscribe email addresses for people because many times they use a different address for their list subscriptions than they do for billing and such. I leave it to folks to decide how they want to subscribe. Scriv George Rogato wrote: Thanks Rick, your the man!

Very nice edit Forbes with one exception: the white space does not refer to 700 MHz. Technically, it covers a range of more than 600 MHz sub 700 MHz, excluding a smattering of bands that will still be in use (not expected to be present in more than 120 markets) and a few other small channels reserved for things like public safety.

Please don't take offense and feel free to change it. As you have explained to me, stepping back and looking at it from another person's eyes sometimes gets the same effect with a little calmer face.
