[ARC5] All Good Things...

[Phillip Carpenter]

Bill,

I'm not expert enough at FB to host a test.

It needs to be someone who uses FB much more than I do and understands how to run such a Forum using that media.

I only use FB to keep in touch with relatives and friends. However, I have joined the Heathkit FB page (but so far have not participated in any discussions nor do I frequent there on a daily basis).

What about the Antique Radio Forum, AMfone Forum, or QRZ Forum, they allow photos and schematics to be posted?

This might be a really good way to grow Amateur Radio and Boat-anchors/Toob radios in particular.
