NYS GMRS Alliance MEMBER UPDATE: We are now past the deadline for the submissions of the 'Membership Option Form' and we would like to thank everyone who took the time to fill out and submit their responses. 207 of our previous members are entitled to a pro-rated membership refund and those will be processed very soon.
We would also like to thank those of you who requested that we hang on to your contact information. As our GMRS radio community takes on a new form we will pass along updates and developments.
As you can imagine, this has been a very difficult time for most of the leadership team. We continue to do the best that we can considering the bad hand that we were dealt. On behalf of the principle officers of the Alliance, thank you for your kind words of support.

NYS GMRS Alliance MEMBER UPDATE: The NYS GMRS Alliance is continuing the process of working through the dissolution of the radio club. Our number one priority right now is to ensure that we are meeting our obligations to the paid members. On June 24th we sent an email to every member outlining the path that lies ahead. That email included important documents released by the leadership team. In accordance with the club's by-laws we entered into a 30-day member comment period. A link to the form to submit your comments was also included in the email. We encourage every member to provide their comments to the leadership team.
In a few days our members will receive an additional email that allows for personal options regarding preferences moving forward.
This has been an exceptionally hard time for our members and for the the leadership team. We thank you for your patience as we practice due diligence with every single decision.

NYS GMRS Alliance MEMBER UPDATE: As most of you are aware our GMRS community received some troubling news on Friday regarding the WRCU416 GMRS repeater system. The leadership team gathered for an emergency meeting Friday evening and again last night to discuss the details and develop plans for the road ahead. Those plans will be presented to the Alliance members after a thorough and comprehensive review of the options available to us.
One move that was made immediately was to place a freeze on new membership applications and the processing of membership renewals. Please be patient as we work out those details.
In the meantime, stay tuned for breaking news on steps being taken to bridge the communication gap created by the shutdown of the WRCU416 GMRS Simulcast System.
