[Elecraft] Limit topics in email

I think the Yahoo groups (or, whatever) are a way of doing this.  The forum/e-mail does not
have to be endorsed by Elecraft for this kind of dialog.  But, I see the justification
and value of Eric moderating the Elecraft list to keep focus on the Elecraft 
products and closely related technology.  And, I expect Eric to moderate this particular
topic thread eventually.
