DLARC (and Kay personally) got some nice accolades (along with the Internet Archive in general) on Ham Radio Workbench podcast episode 229 by the hosts and the ARDC personnel who were guests on that episode. https://www.hamradioworkbench.com/podcast/hrwb-229-all-about-44-net-and-the-ardc

Kay discussed the current project of DLARC is to archive YouTube videos and other media of the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) – https://archive.org/details/fcc-videos. As with every change of US presidential administration and corresponding emphasis in US government agencies, priorities are changing at the FCC, and some media may be removed. In addition to the FCC YouTube videos, DLARC is also archiving the FCC Daily Digest.
