“QSL.” With a period instead of a question mark, it means “I am acknowledging receipt.” That was the bottom-line message sent by the ARRL Board of Directors to the League’s membership at its meeting in January. Faced with a firestorm of complaints and criticism from members, major clubs, and major donors over its so-called Code of Conduct, unexplained disqualifications of board candidates and proposed changes to the League’s Articles of Association and By-Laws, the directors made it clear that the members’ messages had been received loud and clear, “5-9 in Newington.”
