And if so.. I advise you to voice your opinion as that's the only way to be heard, as well as hopefully resolve any concerns the ham community may have. In no way am I attempting to discredit Bryan or his views. We are all entitled to our own opinions. And in fact if it wasn't for this list, I wouldn't have even know about the scheduled meetings. I'm considering attending one myself solely because of this thread. I think someone else mentioned earlier, if there's a suggestion or a plan on how things can be executed better, than bring it to everyone's attention. But pointing the finger at someone else isn't going to resolve anything. And believe that Bryan may get some animosity due to his methods of contacting us.

He has clearly stated his request for our personal information was with held by the FRC, and that he proceeded to seek alternative means of acquiring our information in an effort to contact us.

Florida Repeater Council Information Hi Ron and John, I have dealt with Dana on three repeaters, mine and two that the county turned over to me as ARES EC for the county and as a volunteer himself he has done a good job. And I agree with both of you. Have a good week and keep your feet dry.

Florida Repeater Council Information John, Yes, I think you are correct. Just seems I was not getting replies from others. have been getting today. It is good to have these discussions and the FRC does need guidance from us into repeaters. Just seems one guy has a beef and wants to take over and he has little to do with repeaters really. More of a club board member. And being into the internet service or an IT guy is very little tech knowledge of this subject. Engineering firms do not consider IT guys technical people. But they have a valuable place. I think the FRC does a good job, but they are often slow. Our District 4 director has responded to me quickly in last year when i need assistance in getting a pair for a repeater. not sure what other directors do. Dana is very slow, I think he picks one Saturday in the month and works on what he has received, hi. But he is very knowledgeable about the issues...has lots of experience over the last 20 years dealing with the issues. 73, ron, n9ee/r a know code Extra Ron Wright, N9EE/R BSEE Micro Computer Concepts 352-683-4476 mccrpt@tampabay.rr.com From: FRC-Info <frc-info-bounces@lists.keekles.org> on behalf of Jon Pearl - W4ABC <jonpearl@tampabay.rr.com> Sent: Tuesday, October 4, 2016 11:40 AM To: Florida Repeater Council Discussion Subject: Re: [FRC] FYI... Florida Repeater Council Information Good morning Ron, Is it possible that you're capturing all of the email messages from the FRC list server? It appears that you've somehow arrived at the decision that all are not allowed to communicate in this venue. Here are the archives: http://lists.keekles.org/pipermail/frc-info/ I posted a message to the group yesterday, and while it appeared to all on the list almost immediately, I personally didn't see it arrive in my own mailbox for quite some time. I see this happen quite frequently on the Tower-Talk list server. 73, Jon Pearl - W4ABC On 10/3/2016 11:47 AM, mccrpt@tampabay.rr.com wrote: Bryan, It appears this discussion is between you and us, not between us and us.
