ARRL MUST GET BETTER

[Eugene Rippen]

This reflector is not in a boatanchor vacuum.
It is more than going through a morgue of dead ham equipment.
Were it not that much of this equipment is usable ON THE HAM BANDS, much 
interest may be lost.

And, as far as finding pro-bono attorneys to do our work, there is middle 
ground between free and several hundred dollars per hour.  However I 
believe, unfortunately, that it may be a decision of whether to put money 
into the "RIGHT" attorneys hands, or just merely go with attorneys who are 
proficient in the needed area of law.
