The Technical Information Service (tis@arrl.org) has been around for a long time, but, thanks to the addition of new staff, it has an all new face! Questions on topics ranging from A (antennas) to Z (Zener diodes), and just about anything in between, are answered by expert ARRL Technical Coordinators and Technical Specialists in the field and at ARRL Headquarters. Our Headquarters technical staff will help you over the phone, refer you to a volunteer ARRL Technical Specialist in your area, or send you the needed information from a growing collection of information packages. For really difficult questions, one of our Laboratory Engineers will research our technical library and send you an answer by postal or electronic mail.
