I hope I wont be seen as ungratefull.
I am happy that ARDC Hire people to help with giving support or services
to the community. But for now everyone working for ARDC are from the
USA. No problem with US citizen.. But Ham radio is not a US only service
but a world wide one. It is well known that the GAC is giving grants all
over the world. It is also known that the TAC is also using ham from
multiple country.
But employee should not be only people that are US citizen or people
that can move to the USA or already have a way to work in the USA.
I know it is about the IRS rules. But I am sure there are ways to open
international branch of ARDC that could hire people from other countries.
I really think ARDC need to put some time on that problem. We are
missing on many good people that could give some great help to the
community but are unable to do so because they live in Germany, France,
Canada, Australia, Russia or Japan to name a few.
Yes the Portal is important. Yes giving grants is very important. But
getting the best people to make ARDC the best it can be is much more
important. Like it could be possible to hire software developper to work
on ham project. Maybe create a specific branch of ARDC for
international project? That branch would be financed by the US entity?
We need to work on something like that.
