Hello HamWAN PSDR group, I'm the founder/president of HamWAN Memphis Metro, and an active member of the HamWAN standards group at large. While I don't share the same network and operations technical experience as some of the others, I do have some skills with marketing, team-building, and strategy. I would like the opportunity to serve on the HamWAN board to represent the other regions that have deployed HamWAN. I'd like the chance to advocate for and work on: - Developing the working-group standards for HamWAN - Promoting the project to the international community - Creating partnerships with sponsoring agencies, specifically in the form of grants - Forming new HamWAN networks in regions with interested sponsoring hams and supporting populations/topographies I am in Memphis, TN, so I will not be able to contribute to any of the physical plant operations in Seattle. I also have little interest in acting as a network operator for the PSDR group, as I already have my hands full with MemHamWAN and frequently ask for help from PSDR. I will provide some different skills to the group, and I would appreciate your vote in favor of me for director of HamWAN. I vote yay in favor of myself :) HamWAN PSDR members, please reply with your votes! Thanks, -- Ryan Turner
