The IRS is over a year behind on processing these applications; ours hasn't come up for review yet. We hope to hear from them in the next six months or so. (For those many of you outside the USA, 501c3 status is a recognition by the US government of non-profit educational/research status that exempts the organization from payment of income tax on donations and allows the giver to deduct some portion of their contribution from their own personal income taxes.) So far donations have been few and far between; we're still over a thousand dollars in debt. I do thank those who have been generous. - Brian _________________________________________ 44Net mailing list 44Net(a)hamradio.ucsd.edu http://hamradio.ucsd.edu/mailman/listinfo/44net
