[Elecraft] OT - Why so much Off topic??

[Ken Alexander]

Hi Dave,

The rules regarding posting aren't restricted entirely to Elecraft products.  Frankly, there are too many smart people on the reflector to waste their talent on only one subject.

That said, the Elecraft reflector is my e-mail software's most heavily filtered folder.  I think I currently have 8 filters set up to minimize noise on topics I'm not interested in.  In fact, as much as I'm excited to learn about the KX3, a KX3 filter will be going up very shortly so I don't have to wade through the endless speculation and wish list submissions about the thing!

Long story short:  it's worth sticking around, but you might want to look into ways of managing the traffic.

73,

Ken Alexander,

Guys

I am new to this reflector; but am already considering quitting.

Having just gotten a K3, I was hoping to see it as a source of useful info
// advice, that I will undoubtedly need in the weeks ahead.

Of course the reflector is for more than just the K3; and I can see the
Euphoria surrounding the Latest offerings from Elecraft.

However, there seems too much traffic that is well off topic ( and I am
sorry, 6m conditions, Pacemakers etc are point in case!)

Who regulates the reflector; is there any attempt to reinforce some
discipline or am I just to accept that I just can't cope with wading through
another 100 plus emails a day ??
