Hi Arliss: Elecraft has always accepted posts on any subject of interest to Hams but, as the membership has grown list moderator Eric has requested that messages not about a specific Elecraft issue be limited. He usually steps in after a dozen or so posts but, as one of the founders of Elecraft, he sometimes gets distracted by his "regular job" (usually just when the list gets a juicy subject to jaw about ad infinitum).
It helps setting up e-mail filters if one puts the model of the Elecraft rig in the subject. That way those who have no interest in a particular piece of gear can bulk-delete or filter those messages out and sort the rest. But no matter how often Eric suggests it, it's often forgotten. For posts about something other than an Elecraft product, most use "OT" for "Other Topic". 73 Ron AC7AC -----Original Message----- Not to be a whiner, but ... I signed up to the Elecraft reflector looking for some assistance in troubleshooting my K3. I'm continuing to work on the problem, with assistance from Elecraft support. I also received a number of suggestions from subscribers to the reflector -- thanks! However, by my count more than 1/2 of the previous 90+ posts have been about contesting or debating whether ham radio is a sport. Not quite what I had in mind when I signed up to the reflector. True, there is the delete key, but there comes a point when the signal to noise ratio just gets too low and it's time to move on. I think I've reached that point. Thanks again for everyone's help. 73, Arliss W7XU ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
