14.275?  That is an unfortunate choice for a 20m frequency in N. America as 
it is frequented by the infamous K1MAN and his long winded "bulletin" 
transmissions.  N. America would likely never be able to hear the VU4's 
signal if it has to compete with K1MAN's bulletin transmissions.

Please suggest to the VU4 stations to pick another frequency to listen for 
N. America besides 14.275.  Perhaps the 20m IOTA frequency 14.260 would be 
better.

Perhaps until a different more "human-based" e-mail reflector host is 
found, why not just migrate to a ubiquitous Yahoo group? While I'm no real 
Yahoo fan, they are mostly effective and somewhat ideally suited for groups 
like ours. Digest format is available as are individual e-mails, full list 
maintenance, etc. What's more, their service offers a calendar, a file 
storage area, database, etc.

Again, not ideal (it blocks e-mail addresses and has some on-line 
advertising), but certainly a usable option. I'm on over 40 of these for 
other hobbies and professionally and I'm generally pretty happy with them.

I subscribe to another e-mail list and I'll ask the listmoms if there's 
space for these two lists, but I wouldn't bet the farm on it.

[DX-NEWS] Web based alternative

2004-12-06 Thread Urb LeJeune
One thing to take into consideration while thinking about an
alternative to the current reflectors.
I think it highly likely that the spam reporting was intentional
and malicious. If the person(s) responsible find an alterative method
to continue the assault, the only alternative will be to shut down the
lists.
A web-based alternative may not be ideal but is it worse then
no list at all?

[DX-NEWS] Web based alternative

2004-12-06 Thread Urb LeJeune
GM all,
Several people have suggested a web-based alternative to the
current dx-news and dx-chat reflectors. The idea is certainly worth
some serious though and discussion.
Blogs are much in the news lately. A blog is a web page where
a person posts their musings and other people can comment on the
original posts. Search Google for blog and you will get more information
than you ever wanted.
http://www.google.com/search?q=blog&btnG=Google+Search
A blog for our purpose must allow any subscriber the ability to
both post and comment on an existing post. The advantages of this
format are many. The disadvantage is that you would have to visit a
page on the NJDXA.org website to get you dx fix.
We would really like your comments on the idea. First, visit the
poll at http://njdxa.org/poll.php and let us know your overall preference.
Secondly, we will consider the web-based alternative DX news for a
short period of time so post your questions or comments to the dx-news
or dx-chat list.
Thanks in advance.
Urb, W2DEC
