[SCCC] Attempt to Steal 440 MHz ham band

[H Lawrence Serra]

Everyone-

The telecomms are trying to steal the 440 MHz ham band under the ruse of "public safety." Below is an excellent form letter on-line to protest to any ham's congressman. Everyone should print, sign and mail or email the signed letter to his/her Congressman (determined for you by the website).

73, Larry N6NC
