Last Friday, I was elected President of my local amateur radio club. As is typical for such elections, I was running unopposed, and had essentially been drafted into the position by the previous President (I’ll get you for this some day, Larry). In fact, many ham radio clubs are either on the brink of extinction, or have already gone under, unable to maintain enough participants to keep them running. Even with over 130 members, the Hampden County Radio Association struggles to get volunteers, not only for the administrative positions but for our regular activities.
