ARRL Proposed Bylaw 46

2024-01-16 by Rev. Fr. Robert Bower W9RWB WRPH745

Good afternoon everyone, you may have noticed there is a motion before the ARRL board to make changes to Bylaw 46 at their next meeting on January 19th and 20th. If you are like me, you are not sure of what the changes are, what they mean, and if the changes are good or bad.

I am providing a list of sites that I found on different search engines that list the changes or talk about the changes so you can make up your own mind. I have not watched or read all of the links yet. I am just providing a bibliography of information.

Frozen FOX Hunt

December 30, 2023

Results:

1st Mike Hardy, KB9YGO (right in photo)

2nd Daniel Kassner, K9KJD (center in photo)

3rd Dave Ellis, N9UH (left in photo)

Total of 10 people started. Fr Robert had to leave before he found the FOX. All had a good time. Even though the temperature was not freezing, I think we all got a bit cold. The FOX was hidden in George Wilson Park, hanging about 10 ft up in a tree.

Tentatively planning another fox hunt for February or March.
