[Elecraft] Reflector observations

Tue Dec 31 15:43:08 2002

Well, Larry, you could put those threads which displease you in the
killfile/filter/whatever or you could subscribe to the digest version of the
list and get all of the day's message in one mailing and skip over the ones
that trouble you, either would be preferable to signing off the list, but
that's your prerogative.  In any event, I welcome almost all of this list as
the expression of technical questions from like-minded people or personal
joy in having a radio *I* built actually work and work very well indeed.
That's *my* prerogative.

Happy new year to you and everyone reading this message!

73,

Joe, W2RBA
