I’m not sure where you read that response was required in 10 days?
“This approved amendment will be effective 30 days from the postmark of this letter,”
The 30 days to respond clause has not been amended and was part of the latest published ByLaws that were last reviewed and compared in 2014.
The approved amendment included a cover letter that summarized the changes and the entire document was included. It doesn’t get any more “transparent” than that.

I will say that good policy for an organization when posting proposed bylaws changes is to post the current sections alongside proposed change/additions/deletions so membership has a clear understanding of what is being proposed. It should not be a difficult hunt/copy/paste process for members to see and understand what they are to vote for. The mailing only had cost changes not what was originally there.
As I read the letter announcing the amendments, it said that membership needed to respond within 10 days of receiving the notification or the changes would go into effect. My local radio club is in the middle of bylaw changes as well, but our process by our bylaws provides for full disclosure and enough opportunity for discussions.
We must have transparency in a process like this please.

The mailing states that objections must be "written". Does this mean they must be mailed via USPS? Or is email acceptable? Who should the objections be addressed and/or mailed to?
