Hi Doug.
No forgiveness is required, no offense taken. Each to their own. :-)
What II will say about groups in general is that by anyone not
subscribing to a group which caters for a subject they're interested in,
may miss out in snippets of information that they'd like to have had.
Groups are usually free to join, so there's no money downside from that
point of view. The major downside of multiple groups is the possible
amount of traffic. I cope with this by using an initial text-only email
client, where I see the subject line and sender's address. I can also
read some of the body text if I wish. Anything not of interest is marked
for deletion and is removed when the email client 'hands over' to the
main email client. It's quick and easy, but maybe not for everyone, but
by doing it that way, I can belong to several similar groups, not miss
anything and cope with traffic that doesn't concern me.
Being a member of several groups allows me to compartmentalise my
interest in multiple products from the same source.
Not trying to 'push' an agenda. Just my personal point of view.
73,
Alan. G4GNX

Subject: Re: [Elecraft] K4 shipping info
Alan and friends please forgive me but I am a member of enough groups
for different subjects. I will stick to the Elecraft site and assume
perhaps wrongly that Eric, Wayne and the gang will still support it.
I do have a K4 on order and am committed. There probably have been
other forums for individual Elecraft products but I never visited them.
Everyone is entitled to make their own choices but for me this is
the site for all K4 info.
I ask forgiveness for this stance. It is just the gasp of an old
geezer. It is not my intent to offend but it seems better to say
something now.
Peace and 73 Doug EI2CN
