Making a Big Decision -- Together

Dear member,

For only the second time in 22 years, we are considering a dues
increase. Promoting and protecting amateur radio requires a strong and
vibrant ARRL. Paying our dues (and some of you go above and beyond) is
one way each of us does our part.

In my column in the April issue of QST (read now <https://www.arrl.org/files/file/Membership/Making%20a%20Big%20Decision%20Together%20-%20April%202023%20QST.pdf>),
I introduced the following question:

How does ARRL handle an increase in dues?

On May 1, we will launch an online survey, inviting all ARRL members to participate. The survey will include some short questions about raising
dues and modifying the way some membership benefits are bundled. The
survey will also include an opportunity to share your feedback. The participation of every member is important.

Do this before May 1: Review your ARRL website account

Before you can take the survey in May, you'll need to make sure you
have a working ARRL website account that is associated with your
membership.

Follow these steps:

- Go to www.arrl.org/take-dues-survey
<http://www.arrl.org/take-dues-survey>. This is a member-only page.

- If you are already logged in to your account, you'll see
CONGRATULATIONS! on the members-only page that will host the survey in
May.

- If you are NOT already logged in to your account, follow the
instructions on the page to log in. Or, select the Login button at the
top of the web page, and you will be prompted to enter your ARRL
website username (usually your call sign) and password. If you have not
logged in since April 2022, please use these Login Instructions <https://www.arrl.org/login-instructions>.

- The survey will open on May 1. Return to this web page to take the
survey on, or after, May 1: www.arrl.org/take-dues-survey <http://www.arrl.org/take-dues-survey>.

If you need additional help with your login, call us Monday - Thursday
from 8 AM to 7 PM ET, and Friday from 8 AM to 5 PM ET at 860-594-0200
or email us at membership@arrl.org.

We'll send an update on May 1 once the survey is live.

Thank you for being a member and collaborating on this big decision.
