[Lowfer] Lowfer Forum

Peter, Ted,  Steve,  Bob, Jay,

    I don't see an online forum as competing with a e-mail list in any way.
E-mail is the way to make operating announcements and listener reports.
A forum is where you can post details and files, circuits, audio clips, diagrams etc.
Perhaps even interesting finds on E-Bay.
I think the AM Forum is a good model.
 Registering for the forum would NOT require un-subscribing from an e-mail list!

 One thing that would be enormously useful would be to put up audio clips and spectral plots as an aid to identifying 
interference sources. 

  I am often asked for specific types of information from newcomers and have to troll through websites
and my hard drive and its a time consuming process. 
  A well organized forum like Ted had could really cut through all of that.
  Think of it as a resource like a map or street signs, if you've lived here all your life you have no need for them.
   But for the visitor it can explain a lot in a short period of time!

  I agree with Steve that you could do this on a website, but I am terrible at updating my site!
