Sounds like the members of West Gulf and Roanoke Divisions should be
lining up candidates to replace these two fools.

All,

I'm sorry, but my Roanoke Division  Director, Bodson, has informed me
that he has no intentions of intervening in the matter of RM-11708,
except to recommend or vote that it be supported by unanimous vote of
the board, and any opposition to the matter appears to be from
misinformation and misunderstanding of the issues and intent of the RM
- as pointed out by the ARRL Reply on Comments.

IMHO - This position might be because he was the Second to the original
motions of adoption of the Ad-Hoc Committee report, made by West Gulf
Division Director Woolweaver at the July 2013 ARRL Board Meeting:

 From the official minutes of the
25. On behalf of the Ad Hoc Symbol Rate Rule Modernization Committee,
Dr. Woolweaver(1) moved, seconded by Mr. Bodson(2), that:
WHEREAS the symbol rate restrictions presently in Section 97.307(f) of
the FCC Rules no longer reflect the state of the art of digital
telecommunications technology; and
WHEREAS it is in the interests of all amateurs to encourage both
flexibility and efficiency in the employment of digital emissions by
amateur stations;
IT IS RESOLVED, that the General Counsel is directed to prepare and file
a Petition for Rulemaking seeking the modification of Section 97.307(f)
to delete all references to symbol rate and to apply to all amateur data
emissions below 29.7 MHz the existing bandwidth limit, per Section
97.303(h), of 2.8 kHz.
Mr. Norton moved, seconded by Mr. Bodson, to delete all after "symbol
rate" in the last paragraph. After discussion the amendment was
DEFEATED. After further discussion, the motion as originally proposed
was ADOPTED.

26. On motion of Dr. Woolweaver, seconded by Mr. Bodson, the following
resolution was ADOPTED:
Whereas, the Ad Hoc Symbol Rate Rule Modernization Committee has
completed its mandate,
Be it RESOLVED that the Ad Hoc Symbol Rate Rule Modernization Committee
is dissolved, and its members are discharged with thanks.

  (1)David Woolweaver, K5RAV, West Gulf Division
(2) Dennis Bodson, W4PWF, Roanoke Division

73,
Ben - WB2RHM
