To all you flamers:

If this was meant to be a shot at me for my posting, it only serves to 
show me you (and others) are not capable of reading what has been said:  
I will make this as simple as I possibly can.

1. Not once, on any posting, have I seen anyone say the efforts of K3ZO 
were not appreciated or not necessary.
2. Personally, I'm delighted that he is willing to make such an effort 
to keep us informed.  It's a job that is very much unappreciated and 
unfortunately. remains thankless .

What you flamers are unable to recognize is that it is only the _manner_ 
in which the information is provided that can be annoying to some, and 
nothing more than that.  In my posting and in ever posting I have read 
on this subject by others, that and only that, is what is being said.  
In a nutshell, the problem that is causing some annoyance, is that there 
is a separate posting  for each  callsign that is causing a problem in 
QSLing.  So if there were 10 such problems encountered and Fred was 
letting us know, then there would be 10 separate postings. That was his 
way of accomplishing his goal and sending us information.  Remember, you 
can't please everyone.  There are a lot of hams who do not care nor 
desire such information.  They have the right to choose, same as you do.

What I posted in an effort to settle everyone down and still have Fred 
send the information to us without causing someone to become annoyed, 
was to save up all the notifications for the day or the week (whatever 
would be best), then put them all on _one posting_ and send it to the 
reflector.  That way, you get all the notices and they are gathered all 
together for you, and for the others, there is only the one posting 
every day (again, whatever frequency is best) so there will not be a 
high number of separate postings each day.

I can't make it any simpler than that.  I think it's a win-win situation 
all around.  You get all the notices, the others only see one notice per 
day and Fred's work is cut down a bit because only one posting is 
required that will contain all the information.

Now, tell me where I'm wrong.  Why won't this work??

Fred, if you are reading this, would you please offer me your opinion?

Regards,
Tru (VE6TP)
