Just a short note to pass on developing information about ARRL action on
the “Amateur Radio Parity Act”.
Many of you have been following the League’s legislative proposal to
improve Amateur’s ability to deploy antennas for communications that can
be of service to our communities. The ARRL board has decided to
withdraw the proposed legislation and request to the FCC for action on
it. For details see the ARRL web site announcement at,
