[CW] Copy of email I just sent to QRP-L "management"

[Ed Tanton]

Consider that rejected email to be my resignation from the list. 
Judging by the consensus at the NoGA QRP meeting we held today, if 
you do not stop all the BS going on, you're going to be getting a LOT 
of other departures. THAT discussion we had today at our monthly 
meeting was the origin of my comment. It just seemed to me that-if 
you were not going to steer things into a more relevant 
discussion-someone needed to. I suppose your rejecting it was the 
proverbial straw for me.

I've been on this reflector for a long time. It [apparently] no 
longer represents Low Power Radio, but rather has degenerated into a 
lengthy, drawn out bitch session about band plans, the ARRL, and 
other somewhat related-but GROSSLY over-threaded subjects that are 
not worth the time it takes to delete all of them. I'm very sorry to 
see the state this reflector has devolved into.

Managing a reflector is a difficult, thankless task but altogether 
necessary task. My advice would be to figure out how to do it or pass 
it on. This is not the 1st time there have been threads that just 
seemed to run on and on like this, but this has been the worst-and 
the first time I felt the need to comment this negatively.

For those on the NoGA Reflector, my rejected email is listed below:

Title:   Re: [QRP-L]  whining, proposals, etc. etc. ad nauseum

Is it just me, or would anybody else like to get back to Low Power 
radio and other RELATED topics?
