[Mldxcc] Fwd: [narcc] Calif Hands-Free Regulation AB-1785

[Dennis Moore]

I've asked Bob W6RGG for an update on the ARRL's take on it, and if 
they're doing anything about it. I also asked if there was a 
California-based effort we could get behind to ensure we're focusing our 
efforts on the right place. I'll report back with what he says.

My personal take on Change.org petitions is that unless you obtain 
hundreds of thousands of signatures then nobody at the capitol will pay 
attention to them. I feel if we're going to get behind a petition then 
it should be something that can legally cause a change, not just a loud 
voice.

That being said, I'll sign this Change.org petition and cross my fingers 
that it does lead somewhere. Even if it doesn't reach Sacramento, maybe 
it will generate enough conversation to get an actual challenge moving.

Note: I am NOT endorsing this as President of MLDXCC, just as a ham with 
a horse in this race.

73, Dennis NJ6G
