ARRL is seeking a ham with a professional journalism background to handle
ARRL's news function on a contract, remote basis. Candidates for ARRL News
Editor should be plugged into the ham radio community, with a broad awareness
of the major players (past and present) and the main issues (past, present, and
potentially future) in the world of ham radio. Ideally, candidates will have
professional journalism experience - in particular, having a well-developed
sense of knowing a potential news story when they see one, as well as how and
where to research leads.

The News Editor creates news stories that are posted on ARRL's home page, and
is responsible for publishing the weekly e-newsletter, The ARRL Letter, which
is populated mainly by those stories and augmented by some special weekly
material (a solar weather report, a contest calendar, a conventions calendar,
etc.).

The News Editor is also responsible for creating the ARRL Audio News, a weekly
audio show that presents stories from the home page and The ARRL Letter, and
assembles the most relevant stories from ARRL home page into QST's monthly
"Happenings" column.

For more information, contact[1] ARRL Publications & Editorial Manager Becky
Schoenfeld, W1BXY.
