[amsat-bb] Ham Radios on Princess Cruises

[Jeff Moore]

Cruise lines, just like every other money-making business. relies on income
from it's customers!   You (especially as a RETURNING customer) have a
certain amount of pull with the company, threaten to go somewhere else and
(if they are SMART) they will pay close attention to that!

Can't be bothered?  Neither can they!  It's real simple, you are either a
part of the solution or a part of the problem!  Getting on a forum and
complaining about a problem you are not willing to do something about is a
waste of everyone's time and money.

A concerted effort by 750,000 licensed hams in the US will likely get the
situation corrected, but you have to be willing to make a difference.

So why complain if you aren't willing to pursue a change?
