Hi Erik, HFLINK serves as an ALE "Elmer Zone" to help anyone who asks for help about ALE with PCALE, MULTPSK, or Hardware ALE. Ask your question, get an answer... simple as that. A quick viewing of the group can easily verify it meets this objective: http://hflink.com/group/ Sorry, that your post did not get approved for the HFLINK forum, but perhaps it didn't meet the group's guidelines. It has fair and reasonable guidelines for posting messages, that by the way, you agreed to abide by when you joined it :) All members are expected to converse with esteem. Personal attacks, insinuated personal attacks, or general attacks are not allowed... off-topic, idle chit-chat, snide remarks, grousing, or whining messages just don't get posted... there are plenty of other groups and internet venues if that is what you like. The HFLINK forum is a high quality group that serves both the Amateur Radio ALE, Emcomm ALE, Disaster Relief ALE, and the professional ALE HF communities. It has the latest and most comprehensive information available about Amateur Radio ALE operation, PCALE, and associated digi protocols currently available in the ham radio community. If it concerns ALE in ham radio, you will see it first in HFLINK, and you will see it discussed in depth. http://hflink.com Yes, a moderated group is different than free unmoderated anything-goes groups... HFLINK has a definite purpose, and it is totally free of most side garbage because the moderators volunteer a lot of time and effort to make sure it stays that way. Bonnie KQ6XA .
