Petitions to Keep WWV, WWVH On the Air

WWV QSL CardTony Fiore, K1AMF, writes on the YCCC reflector:

Two petitions have been started on the White House’s “We the People” petition site calling for restoration of funding for these two essential radio stations. Each needs at least 100,000 electronic signatures by mid-September to generate a response from the White House.

The petitions can be found at:
