<div><font size="2" face="Arial">Hi Ian<br>
<br>
Everyone will have a different view on titles, as is evident on this thread, which is fine.<br>
<br>
"Team" is exactly right for us. It also take out the "I" (read "I am . . ."). We are a group of invidivduals, but we very kuch work together here as a team.<br>
<br>
We don't use "amateur" as it doesn't fit us. The point was made earlier, that a "ham radio amateur" is far from amateur. I agree. I've held an amateur radio licence for the best part of 40 years.

<p>Sorry Nigel - but I hate the term "team" with a vengeance.<br>
We are in a very serious commercial business - not a kick-about ball game.</p>
<p>There is a popular (if rather coy) saying - "There's no "I" in team".<br>
We don't consider ourselves a team - we're all practised exponents of our own skills who don't have to rely on the "support" of others to do what is required.<br>
Hence we have our own version of that saying - "There's no "f" in team"</p>

Because it's so unprofessional - it doesn't really give anyone any confidence.<br>
And it's too vague - about as useful as "a member of the public".<br>
Yes - most of us do what we do without payment because we see a need and we want to fill it - but surely we don't all need to wear the same arbitrary label?</p>

<div>Hi Ian,
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Why do you say 'volunteer' is an awful word? I don't understand your point volunteers effectively managing the station - isn't that the norm for community radio? That there is no paid staff and it's run by volunteers?<br>

<div dir="ltr" class="gmail_msg">Dear All,
<div class="gmail_msg">Like many of us, I was saddened to hear the announcement that two community radio stations switch off their transmitters this week. This is a tragedy for the residents of both Spalding and Cheddar, who have lost vital opportunities to
have their voices heard, and experience the joy of community radio as both participants and listeners.</div>
<div class="gmail_msg"><br class="gmail_msg">
</div>
<div class="gmail_msg">The CMA very much wants to help in these situations - but we can't unless we know what is going on. As someone put it to me today, we don't have an alarm in the CMA batcave every time a station is in trouble.</div>
<div class="gmail_msg"><br class="gmail_msg">
</div>
<div class="gmail_msg">It may sound obvious, but please let us know how things are for you. For example, if someone has made a formal complaint to Ofcom and you may be in breach of your licence, how you handle the next steps can make a huge difference. If you
find yourself in this situation, phone the CMA office straight away, or email Bill and ask his advice. He has helped many licensed stations through these kind of problems..</div>
<div class="gmail_msg"><br class="gmail_msg">
</div>
<div class="gmail_msg">If your issue is volunteers then please contact me directly, using the
<a class="gmail_msg" href="mailto:chair@commedia.org.uk" target="_blank">chair@commedia.org.uk</a> email and I will find time to have a chat. Whether you have too many volunteers, not enough, or just the wrong kind, there will be a way through the situation. </div>
<div class="gmail_msg"><br class="gmail_msg">
</div>
<div class="gmail_msg">While I'm here I'd like to congratulate both Tulip Radio and Pulse on their achievements over the years. I'm sure that their impact on their local communities will have lasting effects, even if they are not still around to broadcast about
it. I wish all their staff, directors and volunteers well with whatever they do next.</div>
