Request for Comments Feedback - Field Day advertising with KLAD
Thank you all for your feedback.
?? The club consensus is that we should not (have to) pay for advertising.? Chuck and I met with Amber at Northwest Broadcasting and discussed the options. $1400 for advertisements and a live feed on Saturday. $650 for two weeks of 24 ad spots, 12 paid and 12 matched because we are non-profit ...? She briefly mentioned PSA's are free for non-profits, with the DJ having discretion of what and when they are announced. ??I want to thank Chuck Huckabay for his effort to bring options to the table. I also want to apologize that we did not establish direction or a budget in advance. I will be requesting a Board Meeting (via Zoom) next Tuesday or Wednesday to talk about our oversights and how to proceed. ?
As it stands, It appears we do not have the time or will to advertise with KLAD this year.?
Comments and ideas are still very much welcome.
Thanx, Jeff Eastburn, K-BAR-A Secretary/Treasurer. KJ7IRV, ~73

Re: Request for Comments - Field Day advertising with KLAD
When I ran the Klamath County School Club, KC7VWW, we never had to pay for any PSA and advertisements, all coverage with the paper, TV and radio were free, since?Amateur Radio is a PUBLIC SERVICE. ?PSA are free. We had great support when we approach all the media for coverage.?

Re: Request for Comments - Field Day advertising with KLAD
I think if we can get interest from Film Production and Media Studies students as well, it would be great.

We should have a more coordinated, public
