[Elecraft] List Rule change, PLEASE!

[Jim Miller KG0KP]

IMHO, I think the private answering originates from flaming the people 
answering questions, not on this reflector (there aren't any other 
reflectors like this one) like others, but it is a learned response that 
makes one wary and carrys across.  It makes one not want to answer with a 
general fix or how to get started and improve later for fear the hard line 
purist will send a page of criticism that ONLY applies to purists with 
unlimited funding and the poor fellow asking just got his first radio and 
wants to know the minumum height of an 80 meter dipole or the number of 
radials for a vertical because the manual says "it doesn't need any".  His 
reaction to a battle on the reflector, is this what ham radio is like?

> If we make it a rule that all postings MUST be through the list

Some reflectors only place the reflector email address in the response bar 
but one can still glean the actual email address from the message.  Ask for 
it as you did, you can't force it.

Flame suit on.
