[TenTec] Merger

[Jim Lowman]

Seriously, how many hams do you think he saw who were of the age 
demographic to be on Facebook or Twitter?
I hadn't noticed a lot of young people in the crowd when we were there 
last year.

I'm on Facebook and, in addition to staying in contact with friends and 
family who are scattered all over the country, there's a lot of good 
ham-related stuff on there.
The QRZ page, for example.  Twitter...well, I have an account, but 
rarely look at it.

If the new Sales and Marketing Manager thinks that even 50 "likes" on 
Facebook is significant, he's borderline delusional.
