I did try to process the emails and strip out the Greenkeys footer lines (which seemed to work) and the previous message content in each post. This usually works, but not all the time because when some people reply their email program clearly identifies the original post (like mine does) and sometimes their email program does not and I have no way to find it.

Here’s my 2 cents worth. If you are monitoring AUTOSTART, then you are interested in keeping this part of TTY technology alive. Other than the “regular” posts…ie: Tom’s Today in History (which I enjoy), K2DSI’s marine forecast, my RTTY ART (which I hope others enjoy and W6OQI’s jokes, there is no other traffic if the Greenkeys posts are not there. Yes, if a thread gets long, the constant reposting can get tedious and eat up a lot of paper, but that doesn’t seem to happen to often. You can also roll up the paper carefully and print on the other side. I have noted in the past that there seems to be little Greenkeys traffic past around 3 pm Pacific, so I have a time clock turn on my TU at 5 AM and turn it off at 3 PM. I’d like to see Greenkeys postings to ITTY AUTOSTART continue.

I agree Dave,

I use mine from Friday evening to Monday morning every week. I use about 1 roll per month.

With a case of 12 rolls costing about $105.00 I figure 10 bucks a month for entertainment is not to bad.

That’s right, Daniel. Some people complained about seeing the Greenkeys
emails come through autostart, so I have disabled it. Happy to turn it on if
more folks want it than not.
What do you all say? Turn it back on or leave it off? Feel free to reply
publicly or privately. I am at your service…

I'm reminded of the following:

Patient: Doctor! Doctor! It hurts whenever I bang my head against the wall!

Doctor: Well then, stop doing it!

If AUTOSTART hurts then don't turn it on (or perhaps only at certain times or something).
