The BOD will do anything to keep the business making money, as with any 
business. The solution is very simple, drop your membership if your not happy 
with the way the BOD is running the ARRL or get elected and do something 
about it. 

I love contesting as much as anyone and hate to see the results taken out of 
the magazine. I feel contesting is on its way out, especially now that the 
bands are so crowded. The spectrum can only support so many users at one 
time.  With the FCC enforcing fines to persons causing QRM, the non-contester 
stations have leverage to claim the contester is interfering with their 
operation.  I think the ARRL has seen this coming down the pipe and wants to 
get on the winning side before contesting is abolished on the ham bands. Its 
not going to happen over night, but it will happen.
