I'm not sledging WIA; I have no qualms with the WIA at all, and I wouldn't a paid member if that were the case. Considering it's an almost 100% volunteer organisation they do pretty damned well. Every time I've been in touch with them about something I've gotten a quick and helpful response.Second, would you pay the cost of full time admin staff to sit in the office at Melbourne to process applications as they appear?
What I do have an issue with is how ACMA have somehow decided they needed to outsource what should be a fairly basic core business function to the WIA.
It's not like dozens of other administrations around the world have had to do the same, so what makes ACMA so special?
No, the problem I have is with watching public agencies needlessly wasting taxpayers' funds on inefficient business processes.but this is the problems with hams- they so often complain about the level of services while either not wanting to pay what that costs, or want it for free
