I'm not wellversed in the operation of email reflectors, so please bear with me if the following isn't a practical idea.
I found the recent "stupid" thread to be entertaining and informative, but must agree that it strayed way off the subject of Elecrafts. Maybe there's a way to avoid clogging up the reflector and the archives with such posts, yet have them reach those who want them. Perhaps a filter of some sort could be incorporated into the reflector so that if a key phrase like "OT:" appears in the subject thread, all following emails would be redirected to a different reflector (call it "Elechat"). Those who don't mind such discussions would subscribe to both Elecraft and Elechat, while those who don't want to bother with OT threads would only subscribe to Elecraft. "Elechat" would not be permanently archived, either. Perhaps an 30 or 60 day archive could be used. 73 de Jim, N2EY _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
