Subject: MGT - SEMANTICS 1/7

This is the first in a series in response to letters,  messages,
and queries at seminars.

Probably the biggest problem with these bulletins, and one that
may never be resolved, is misinterpretation or misunderstanding
of the written word. What is intended by the writer and how it is
interpreted by the readers may not be the same. When RACES
seminars are conducted in person it is much easier to clarify
issues that arise over such misinterpretation as well as others.

Whereas these BULLETINS are called "RACES" they are for all
communications volunteers in government service. This includes
Public Safety, RACES and the Civil Air Patrol.

The current RACES BULLETIN series began in l985. It was the first
effort to document program issues, ideas, definitions and
guidance since 1960. They went national in 1989 at the request of
the ARRL. In response, you have rewarded us with positive
feedback, input and support from all over the U.S., Canada and
Australia, for which we are most appreciative.

Series authored by Stanly E. Harter, originally titled "From My
Lookout". Edited for digital transmission. Uploaded by unpaid
[volunteer] professionals in public safety and public service
telecommunications. (To be continued.)
