RSGB PRICE HIKE
I know £72 isn't an enormous amount of money, but in the current climate, I can find better things to spend it on. I'd be interested to hear other people's opinions.

Hi Tom!
Sounds like the RSGB is going down the same road as the ARRL. Lots of folks over here not renewing for the same reason. Personally, I shelled out for ARRL Lifetime Membership back in the 80s. I have gotten my money's worth.

@W2LJ : Hi Larry, hope you are well. Yes, I guess you made the right choice back then. A sound investment.

Good morning Tom I have been a member for 8 years and this year my renewal price was 73 pounds. When that is converted to Canadian dollars I was looking at 126.00. That is a bit to rich for me so I let my membership end in March of this year.

@VE9KK : Good morning Mike! I’m guessing that the RSGB have seen a big slump in subscriptions as a result of this increase. It’s just that little push over the edge. They’re not alone in making increases, of course, but when your subscription prices go up for this, your CableTV, your Phone, your Insurances, your MotoGP, your Amazon, etc, etc, etc, it all adds up and forces you to make some cuts.
Hope you’re well.
