Propose restoration of deleted reference[edit]

I left the following message at User talk:74.222.220.183

Thank you for your edits to the MACKINAW. Your latest revision as of 12:14, 27 July 2013 deleted a reference to amateur radio operations in MACKINAW. From what I see this was the only reference for the ham radio paragraph. Furthermore, I found the information at reference http://ccecpsco.org/ interesting, and not "a briefest mention of the subject" (or words to that effect) as you describe. Please consider reverting your edit. Please consider becoming a registered User if you have not already done so.

NB: I did not sail in MACKINAW, nor am I a member of W8AGB, nor CCECPSCO, nor am I a Michigander.

Thank you for remembering the MACKINAW and helping to preserve our Coast Guard history. Semper Paratus Tjlynnjr (talk) 04:12, 28 July 2013 (UTC). Tjlynnjr (talk) 05:27, 28 July 2013 (UTC).[reply]

Support. Why not? That was the first link, nobody has complained in five years, and article may have local interest. Perhaps if something was brought in, rather than taken out...Sammy D III (talk) 14:51, 28 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Concensus. Done, it's been 5 months without further comment. Semper Paratus Tjlynnjr (talk) 09:03, 3 January 2014 (UTC).[reply]
