James MillsHOST
continue to try.
Jim DavisHOST
One of two lobby groups, and the other one still needs to catch a lot more steam before it will even be in a competitive state with ARRL.
Jim DavisHOST
So certainly worth considering.
James MillsHOST
A little bit sadder news perhaps then, James, on this one here.
JasonHOST
Option two would be a form of coalition of GMRS organizations and users across the country.
JasonHOST
Now, a couple of you have emailed me about setting up some sort of GMRS, as it were, ARRL.
JasonHOST
So not ARRL.
JasonHOST
By the way, ARRL should maybe take a look at this because ARRL stands for American Radio Relay League.
JasonHOST
There's nothing about amateur or ham radio in their name.
JasonHOST
Of course, they're the ambassadors for ham radio to the FCC and to the government.
Caryn Eve MurrayPANELIST
For me, when we were reporting this story, it was just disturbing to see how people were left for a very, very long time without knowing exactly what this meant.
Caryn Eve MurrayPANELIST
And I think, unfortunately, it caused a lot of fear and a lot of misinformation until finally a statement could be made, which eBay certainly came out with a, a statement, and they released it through the ARRL that ham equipment is fine, it's protected.
Caryn Eve MurrayPANELIST
Back to you, Martin.
Martin ButlerHOST
Yeah, long but interesting comment.

Find out who wants to renew when it's having trouble.

So outreach.
Caryn Eve MurrayPANELIST
Also, he's asking the ARRL to get involved in this too and reach out to people.
Caryn Eve MurrayPANELIST
And that's important.

A nearly $5.5 million grant from the U.S. space agency NASA is helping HAMSIDE, the citizen science group, to bring schools, museums, libraries, and other community resources the experience of scientific discoveries that have previously been limited to laboratory settings.
Kevin TrotmanCORRESPONDENT
NASA calls this initiative Science Activation, or SCIAG, and its collaborators include such organizations as the ARRL Teachers Institute, the New Jersey Institute of Technology, and the Space Science Institute.

This week we hear from Jack Parker, W8ISH, who tells us about the New England Digital Voice Traffic Net, a training net for message handling.
Jack ParkerCORRESPONDENT
Amateurs interested in learning the protocol for message handling are being encouraged to join a new traffic net that meets via digital voice systems on repeaters, hotspots and IP-based connections.
Jack ParkerCORRESPONDENT
New England Digital Voice Traffic Net was launched on the 1st of October as a welcoming environment in which operators can learn to exchange traffic and prepare written ARRL radiograms.
Jack ParkerCORRESPONDENT
According to its website, the net is particularly focused on serving those operators who may not be able to get on HF or local nets via RF.

Rich MosesonHOST
ARRL and HAMSAI are participating with the University of Scranton and four other institutions in a NASA-funded initiative to advance space weather education, scientific discovery, and public engagement through amateur radio.
Rich MosesonHOST
As part of the project, ARRL will receive grant funding to develop and deliver a new Teachers Institute program on space weather, providing high school STEM educators with hands-on professional development in solar activity, Earth's magnetosphere, the ionosphere, and the effects of space weather on radio communications.
MarvinHOST
But there's some good news for amateur radio operators.
MarvinHOST
Following questions from ARRL, eBay clarified that equipment operating exclusively on amateur radio frequencies is exempt from the new FCC ID listing requirement.
MarvinHOST
And that's good news for those who enjoy picking up equipment through used market.
MarvinHOST
But radios capable of operating outside of the amateur radio bands may have different certification requirements.
