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

"amateur" as it doesn't fit us. The point was made earlier, that a "ham radio

<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>
<P><BR>(say it quickly and you'll get the message)</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><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

<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>
