Comment on [FoAR] Foundations of Amateur Radio - The ARRL incident of May 2024, a year later #podcast

I’ve been an on and off member of the ARRL every since I was first licensed in the 90s. At one point, I was even a VE. I don’t remember exactly what made me decide to drop membership many years ago, but in the following years the actions of the ARRL have not inspired confidence.
I have received zero emails about my VE status, and I haven’t participated in any licensing sessions in years.

The lack of transparency within the various bodies within our community is disturbing. It’s not that the information is there, waiting to be found, instead it seems clear to me that it’s been withheld for reasons nobody has ever even attempted to articulate let alone justify, and frankly I think it’s harmful to the well-being of the entire pursuit of amateur radio.
