I also agree with Dave and Wes. Keeping up with current resale values is useful to me. 73 Darrell AB2E ________________________________ From: elecraft-boun...@mailman.qth.net <elecraft-boun...@mailman.qth.net> on behalf of Wes <wes_n...@triconet.org> Sent: Monday, October 30, 2023 5:22 PM To: elecraft@mailman.qth.net <elecraft@mailman.qth.net> Subject: Re: [Elecraft] List guidelines, please review.
I'm with Dave on this one. I see guys setting up complicated email filters to sort messages into different folders, etc, I just look at the subject and, more often that not, hit the delete key. Since I have a K3 in a box under the desk that I should be selling I'm interested in what the market is too. Leave well enough alone.
