I can't find a reference on this at the moment, but wasn't the organization originally called the Amateur Radio Relay League and later changed to "American...", perhaps sometime in the 50s? If so, then this statement ("he had already decided...") isn't strictly true, and anyway the name change should be mentioned at some point in the article. I'll take a look around for support when I get a chance, but does anyone have something on hand? 73 /Ninly ( talk) 05:02, 19 November 2008 (UTC)
This is not an NPOV section. Should at least say "sometimes criticized" rather than "often criticized". If you say "often", you need to back it up statistically. The discussion should be balanced: there is some criticism, but there is widespread support, too. Criticisms should be referenced. (Saying you heard it on 80 M SSB doesn't count!) And so forth. -- Albany45 ( talk) 23:17, 23 February 2010 (UTC)
Made some improvements in language and added a link to ARRL Annual Report. Still needs deeper research and references to various controversies over the years. The Zero Bias editorial was actually trying to debunk most of the "criticisms"! Should include "incentive licensing" and probably other topics. Should link to QST editorials and other League position statements. -- Albany45 ( talk) 15:51, 25 February 2010 (UTC)
I propose merging Elser-Mathes Cup into American Radio Relay League as it is an article about an award the League has won. It is an orphan article and unlikely to have any notariety other than its connection to the ARRL, but is most certainly notable. Markvs88 ( talk) 15:26, 14 September 2010 (UTC)
As there appears to be consensus on this issue, I am merging the articles. Markvs88 ( talk) 14:58, 29 September 2010 (UTC)

Individual club officer positions have no notability outside the club itself; suggest that these various long descritions be summarized and included, perhaps in an "organization" section here. -- Wtshymanski ( talk) 20:15, 11 December 2012 (UTC)
How do I tell a new neighbor, a ham operator, that his transmissions are coming through on our TVs? How can he fix this problem? I do not want to confront him with this problem because he is the type of personality that gets "physical" rather easily. Tell me what he needs and I will send him an anonoymous note. 50.43.150.187 ( talk) 00:59, 21 January 2014 (UTC)
Should there be an article about the ARRL Handbook? Or at least mention it here? Gah4 ( talk) 20:24, 16 October 2020 (UTC)
