[aprssig] Leaving the email listserv

[Stan Horzepa]

Hello Patrick,

There is absolutely no requirement that anyone have a ham license to be 
part of this SIG or any other SIG that TAPR sponsors. If someone was 
hassling you about a license requirement, they were way out of line and 
misinformed about this SIG's requirements.
