    Truth is, I really don’t follow ARRL on anything other than their website. If an interesting link shows up elsewhere, such as on this blog, for example, I might click on it.

    Routine use of twitter or facebook, forget it–too many twits tweeting, and I don’t try to ‘friend’ the whole world…that’s what radios are for, IMHO…

    Are there training materials that will enable radio ops to expand their emcomm skill sets by being adept at all appropriate social media tools?
