Absolutely. I don’t think I’d be going out on a limb to say amateur radio isn’t going anywhere as far as ARDC is concerned. I see amateur radio happening in this community every day. In fact, one of the things I myself want to do is help others see what I see, so we can all do more to celebrate each others’ successes. Stick around and we’ll see what we can do to shine more light on the amazing things that are happening all over the place in 44Net and in amateur radio.

I’m glad to see people are interested in getting involved and participating in the organization and engaging with its leadership. Inviting contributions is very much the purpose of this thread.
The people who contribute their time and effort are doing their best to serve the community. I work with people every day who want nothing but for people to succeed in exploring and learning and building with technologies for the benefit of their communities.
The challenge sometimes when there’s a large group of people trying to move many things forward is that not everyone agrees on what everyone else should be doing. That’s okay though, because not every corner of the world has the same needs and interests.
But the way things work is, we all try to do our best to be considerate and conscientious. We do need to agree at least on that. Fortunately, I think we do. That’s how we and those who’ve come before us keep the spirit alive and this community thriving. So let’s keep it up.
Thanks very much!

Hi, John:
In regard to ARDC and 44net resources, I am only interested in the Amateur Radio community and Amateur Radio technologies. I hope the ARDC will do its best to to be considerate and conscientious of the Amateur Radio resources they manage to keep the Amateur Radio community thriving. I would like have agreement on that.
