The National Traffic<br />
System<br />
We the undersigned ... believe we are<br />
handling entirely too many common-text<br />
messages in the system and we should<br />
try to do something to reverse the trend.<br />
NTS is losing respect as a public<br />
service entity. Enough is enough. We<br />
need to ask for more real 3rd-party<br />
messages and fewer "support" the systern,<br />
CW, etc, roster type resources.<br />
Operators at the grass-roots level are<br />
getting tired of delivering this type of<br />
bulk traffic and some have defected<br />
from the system because ofit.<br />
New and old timers alike don't want<br />
to be bothered receiving it. We need. a<br />
better reason for getting someone up<br />
from the dinner table and to the phone<br />
than to hear redundant support the system<br />
type texts, however well-meaning.<br />
There is a tendency for frustration<br />
and discontent including defection at the<br />
section and local levels due to the perception<br />
that the system has slipped from<br />
the handling of third-party publicservice<br />
type communications into distribution<br />
of stereotype, canned comments,<br />
ad nauseam. Best Regards, Warren<br />

Free Maps<br />
