[Elecraft] Deleting OT

[Thomas Schaefer]

Thanks.

To avoid creating too many posts (and have this turn into a me-too off topic post), if people respond to me directly IF THEY KNOW HOW to FILTER a DIGEST, I will summarize and send it back to the list.

Regards,

I am not sure if it is boredom or lack of other outlets that folks believe they can post things that have absolutely nothing to do with Elecraft. For the record, as I have been in the Elecraft dog house before for mentioning this, I am not suggesting what people should post.

I suspect I could switch to individual emails and simply setup a rule to automatically delete anything that starts with OT. Then just delete posts by people that  post things unrelated to Elecraft.
