[Premium-Rx] List announcement regarding proposal for serial number index

[Greg W. Bailey]

  Fellow Members:
   
  We have received 6 responses to my inquiry for the establishment of a serial number data bank.  The most positive reply was; "ABSOLUTELY!", while the most negative was; "Machs Nicht (it makes no difference)".  Nigel's (GandalfG8 at aol.com) comment represents the remaining four respondents with; "I could see a value in including serial numbers and/or part numbers where they have a real significance in terms of options fitted, etc".

  With only 6 out of the 250+ members responding, I think it would be best to put this idea on the back burner, and redirect our efforts in an area more rewarding.  In this regard, Jan and I are adopting a policy of not generating a S/N index, but rather we propose including this information, along with any associated hardware changes, in the detailed description of the specific premium receiver as found in our 'Premium Radio' subcategory.  

  So for example, if I do a page on the Cubic 3030, I will include any information I have on mods, S/Ns etc.  If other subscribers have additional information on modifications and S/Ns, they can let me know once they see what I've done. Then the next time the page is revised this information could be added.

  If at a later date we find ourselves with sufficient information for a separate S/N index, perhaps at that time we could accomplish the task.
