[Elecraft] Re: BPL; List guidelines

[Eric Swartz WA6HHQ - Elecraft]

Hi Bill,

As noted in our list guidelines, the Elecraft reflector is a forum for both 
technical topics and ham radio topics of general interest to the list 
subscribers. BPL -is- an appropriate topic for discussion here. In general 
though, once a topic like this has been discussed for a day or two we ask that 
everyone let the thread trail off, unless there is something new to report.

Also, please do not post to the list asking for threads to be terminated. This 
only serves to increase the list noise level as these postings, and their 
various responses, take up additional list bandwidth. This is much like the 
problem that occurs during DX pile ups ;-) Also we strive to maintain a 
cordial forum where list members do not tell each other what to post etc.

Email me instead and as list moderator I'll make that determination and post 
when appropriate. Feel free to voice your opinions when emailing directly to 
me - I have a very thick hide :-)

Also, there is no need to copy me on postings to the list. This just 
duplicates the emails to me.

73, Eric WA6HHQ
Elecraft list moderator
