Dear ARRL Member:<\/p>\n

Based on feedback I\u0092ve received, it seems to me that some members still don\u0092t fully understand certain features of the Amateur Radio Parity Act (ARPA) and what it is meant to do. To make things clearer, we have developed an FAQ in the format of questions and answers. Please take a few minutes and read the FAQ to learn more about the ARPA.<\/p>\n

Here is the direct link:
\nhttp:\/\/www.arrl.org\/files\/file\/Regulatory\/The%20Amateur%20Radio%20Parity%20Act%20FAQ.pdf<\/a><\/p>\n

Here is another link with additional information:
\nhttp:\/\/www.arrl.org\/amateur-radio-parity-act<\/a><\/p>\n

Thanks to those of you who have written your Senators in support of the ARPA. If you have not done so, please do so by clicking on the link below. It only takes a minute.<\/p>\n
