Also bear in mind that it's the "overseas" members that are truly subsiding everyone else.
It still costs £51 a year and we only really get the Radcom as a result, the only other benefit is the spin off through having a big voice in a neighbouring country.
And they justify it being the same price by not charging extra for foreign postage, which probably amounts to less than a pound.
Not that I'm complaining, I pay £47 per year for Practical Wireless so £51 for Radcom ain't that bad.

Bear in mind, Chris, the rest of us are subsidising you and other UK
radio amateurs who are non members of the National Society. Negotiations
with Ofcom, IARU Region 1 and the ITU (WRC2012, etc) do come at a cost
and we're paying it for you :-(
