Meeting over the weekend in Windsor, Connecticut, the ARRL Board of
Directors has approved a $10 increase in the League's annual dues rate,
effective January 1, 2016. In doing so, the Board adopted a recommendation
of the Administration & Finance Committee. ARRL basic dues have been held at
$39 a year since 2001. In addition, the Board adopted amendments to the ARRL
HF Band Plan - with some tweaks, okayed a National Parks On The Air (NPOTA)
operating event in 2016 to celebrate the National Park Service centennial,
began the search for a successor to ARRL CEO David Sumner, K1ZZ, who will
retire next May, and named several ARRL award recipients. Sumner said the
League has done as much as it can to hold off a dues increase for more than
a decade, but now it's a necessity, not an option.
