Hi Sam,
your question is right.
I was an ARRL Member since 1963 and become an RSGB
Member end of 1965.
I am ARI member since 1959 and have been members of
another European Radio Society and HamRadio.
I stopped my mebership with ARRL in 1980 and I am
still a Member of RSGB since 1965.
Why I stopped ARRL membership? The reasons are two:
Having a family with XYL, 3 kids and a dog I had to
limit expenses. QST was becoming large with a lot of
advertisements and simple circuits while RSGB Bulletin
and later RadioCommunication, RadCom ... was improving
in projects and interesting columns. The most
important column for me was and still is Technical
Topics managed by Pat Hawker, G3VA.
Maybe RadCom had and as project more European like
(???). In 1980 I kept HR for a while and then stayed
with ARI and RSGB memberships.
I believe QST became "poor" when somebody in ARRL to
make more money created QEX....
Later, duirng my staying in France I become member of
the French Society, REF.
Today I have investments in ARI (RadioRivista), RadCom
RSGB and SPRAT the quarterly magazine of G-QRP Club.
I suggest to those interested in solder smoking and
fiddling with homebrewing to become member of RSGB and
possibly with G-QRP Club too....
