[Lowfer] Lowfer Forum

[riese-k3djc at juno.com]

I agree wit Steve,,,, I have been forced,, no encouraged to move from
some
posting sites toward  Forums. I really dislike the need to jump through
hoops
only to find way out of date information and the need to rattle around
for information
if the need is to post pictures provide a site where that can happen and
simply add the link to the existing lowfer posting. Actually I really
dislike Yahooie
