Hi David,

Qth.net, like many ISPs, gets attacked by hackers with 'Denial of Service' 
attacks from time to time. This delays web site and reflector response until 
the attack stops or the qth.net guys are able to block the attacks. No mail to 
the list is lost during these delays, as you can see by what has flushed 
through the list now.

Also, the internet as a whole can encounter delays from time to time between 
two points. while it may be fast for one user it can be slow for another. 
These slow downs also clear up on their own.

I guess everyone goes into withdrawal when their Elecraft email arrives late ;-)

73, Eric  WA6HHQ
