Bullyragging the directors (of any national society) does not achieve the
goal of perpetuating our principles. The directors represent the
constituents of which we are but a fraction. *We* need to sell our values
and vision to the other constituents. Without more hams sharing our values,
it matters not what the directors think.
Said alternately, is ham radio about *us* or is it about ham radio? Perhaps
Part 97.1 can offer guidance in this regard.
