Since most divisions did not conduct any formal vote, we have no way of knowing if these people voted the will of their members, or were ARRL rubber stamps.  At the least, be aware of where your Director stands.  Some are up for reelection now.

Gee Don, at least point it to the ARRL minutes. Pointing it to a typical QRZ thread is like pointing your finger into thin air.


Here's my post on this board last week. It's interesting to read the motions that could not get a Director majority.

Some interesting reading of the July 15/16 Minutes of the ARRL Board of Directors meeting.
Check out (click link below) some of the motions, from motion 24 up to motion 37, that were presented and failed. And here is the final Director vote count on the bandwidth proposal:
"On motion of Mr. Frenaye, seconded by Mr. Vallio, it was VOTED to use a roll call vote to answer the question, after which the motion was ADOPTED, 12 in favor to 3 opposed, with the following Directors voting AYE: Mr. Fuller; Mr. Isely; Mr. Bellows; Mr. Roderick; Mr. Mondro; Mr. Fallon; Mr. Walstrom; Mr. Frenaye; Mr. Milnes; Mr. Vallio; Mr. Morton; and Mr. Butler; and the following Directors voting NAY: Mr. Bodson; Mr. Norton; and Mr. Day."
