Bill,
I totally agree but you would be surprised on how many amateur
manufacturers are involved in this. Thus, I sent this in which may
interest some. Really, any amateur manufacturer deals with the FCC on a
daily basis. Every piece of equipment needing their certifications, etc.
This also has the effect of Uncle Sam wanting these manufacturers to
supply military or government equipment which can keep a company afloat.
I imagine this webinar will be about supplying transmitters and
amplifiers to the terrorist task forces and state law enforcement. Right
now, anyone can get involved in this with a good profit potential for a
small business. Amateurs have an upper hand, knowing what will work and
what will not. On this mailer, most who post often have an upper hand on
amplifier technology. If you don't mind dealing with Uncle Sam, this
could be a money making opportunity for anyone here.

Gee,
I don't want that camel's nose in my tent! The best thing about ham
radio is the lack of need for
infrastructure and that the hams have always purchased or built their
own equipment thus not being
dependent on Federal funds. We provide amateur radio classes and do
the examinations at no cost to
the government. When we start depending of the Fed for equipment they
will begin specifying the
equipment and come up with specifications as we have seen for new 60
meter band.

*Speaker:*
Michael Paddock, Grants Office LLC
Homeland security is one of today's most relevant topics. Land Mobile
Communications are key to protecting US borders. In some instances,
these communications present the first and last line of defense. The
FY04 Homeland Security Appropriation provides $3.5 billion to "first
responders" in their homeland security work. Much of the money will
be distributed through grants from Federal departments such as the
Department of Homeland Security (DHS). Public safety agencies need to
know how to apply for grants, and vendors need to know who gets the
money in order to effectively target their sales efforts.
In this Webinar, Mr. Paddock discusses:
* *The Federal grantmaking process *
* *How vendors figure in the funding picture *
* *Federal programs that could fund their customers' wireless
communications purchases *
