Hi Folks-I apologized to Jim Lowman about the User's Group announcement 
rejection. In my instant ire over the rejection, I failed to see he simply 
objected to even the mention of ebay as I did. I think that's silly-but the 
response was disproportionate. Only excuse is a combination of surprise at 
the rejection making me see red, and too many hours at work the past 3 
weeks. For those of you who don't know me, I am normally pretty reasonable. 
I have edited ebay out of the announcement, and refiled.

Now it reads:

OK Folks... it is done. There is now an ARGONAUT Users Group reflector at 
QSL.NET .You may subscribe by going to: 
<http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/argonaut_users_group> and filling 
in the blanks.

I run several other reflectors, and have a very liberal management style. 
If you want to argue or snipe at someone, take it off the reflector. If you 
want to sell something even remotely related to Argonauts (including the 
315 receiver!) feel free to mention it. You may mention the sale of things 
but keep THOSE to a minimum AND on topic.

Otherwise, the idea is to support and inform our members and I'll do that 
in any way I can. I will post a very similar email to QRP-L and a couple of 
my other reflectors. By the way, about me: besides having owned one of the 
original 505 Argonauts and the 405 amp (I BELIEVE I was the first ham in 
the US who ran a solid-state 50W on RTTY!)

I presently own an Argonaut II-which I once sold, and later repurchased. 
Now it ain't for sale-ever!
