[Lowfer] Raining on the parade

Mon, 21 Oct 2002 17:25:36 -0400

Les,

I might suggest that the crazy guys having most of the fun (typically the 
185.3ers these days) communicate all our signal reports serious or straight, 
not though this reflector, but via our own CC circle. Is that what you had 
in mind? We did this a bit over a year ago when the HiFer band got hot. One 
of the negatives is that newbees and the not-so-active viewers are left out. 
I suppose there could be a code of conduct established that says anything 
funny gets sent to this circle and anything straight goes to this reflector, 
but this gets complicated.

As the new season approaches I would appreciate comments from all on this 
idea or anything else good or bad about past activity on this reflector. No 
grudges amongst any of us is allowed, OK?

Bill Ashlock (in a rare, serious, mode)
