ARRL Surveying Field Day Participants
The ARRL Programs and Services Committee is seeking input from stations and groups that participated in ARRL Field Day 2020 and 2021 and has posted a survey. The committee said the survey results may help shape the development of Field Day rules for 2022 and beyond. 1
The survey is accepting responses until January 17, 2022.
6GHz WiFi Court Ruling
This ruling by the United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit does not appear to impact Amateur Radio Super High Frequency (SHF) operation since—according to the ARRL US Amateur Radio Frequency Allocations page and Wikipedia ITU Region 2 frequency allocation chart—the 6GHz band is outside the Amateur Radio 5cm allocation (5.650–5.925 GHz).

I wondered what it would take to leave the hobby.
