SD>Hello Daryl,

Hi, Sean...

SD>ARRL life membership is cheaper than QRZ.com's or The American Legion's
SD>lifetime memberships.  I became a lifetime member of the NRA but I was able 
SD>do that for $600 which was half-off.

  It's now over $1000 for a Life Membership. I got mine shortly after my
Dad died 12 years ago.

SD>The ARRL is our voice in the ITU and that affects everyone.

  This is true.

SD>I don't mind dropping $50 a year on the ARRL.  Considering I have my shack a
SD>its entire contents insured via the ARRL, it's a very good deal for me.

  Well, I don't have any RF gear, per se...and right now, I couldn't
afford the insurance premiums on just the computer stuff. I even curtly
told them that "you're wasting your time asking me for money for
Spectrum Defense, The Diamond Club, W1AW, etc. -- $1100 a month on
disability doesn't go very far". I don't even order stuff from The ARRL
Store...it has to be a darn good reason for me to do so.

Daryl, WX4QZ
