From w1smh@mailman.qth.net Tue Jan 8 16:59:36 2002 From: w1smh@mailman.qth.net (Tim) Date: Tue, 08 Jan 2002 11:59:36 -0500 Subject: [W1SMH] New software, New List address....Important Message-ID: <5.1.0.14.2.20020108115611.009fe2b0@pop.nethawk.com> List Members, As you know, all email lists at QTH.NET are currently being run on a program called Majordomo. Since this program was written there have been many changes in list management software. We had hoped that Majordomo would update as time went by, but sadly it hasn't (even though the authors said they would). To that end QTH.NET will be changing some of the lists to a more user-friendly package called Mailman. This list is one of those that will be changing. Mailman allows you to manage your subscriptions on the web. You can subscribe, unsubscribe, put your subscription on hold, change from normal to digest mode and much more. You can still manage your subscription via email, but the GUI is much easier. If you would like to have a look at the user guide (a work in progress), go to: http://www.imsa.edu/~ckolar/mailman/mailman-userguide-0.1.pdf You will need Acrobat Reader to view this file. What do you have to do when we change? Pretty much nothing! When the list is moved, you will receive a welcome message from Mailman. You should save this as it contains the address you are subscribed under as well as a password (which you can change). You'll need the password to make any changes in your subscriptions. You will also receive the new list posting address along with links to the list info page, subscription management page and more. While I don't expect any problems with the transfer, please be patient if problems do arise and be confident that we will be working to solve them as quickly as possible.

If you find any problems with this software that need to be addressed, please contact me IMMEDIATELY so that we can seek resolution. I do not want the conversion to keep people from using this resource. The same old rules apply to this mailing list server as the previous: 1. Make sure all messages are in plain-text format (NO RICHTEXT or HTML) 2. Do not send attachments to the mailing list server. 3. Enjoy!!! Send your messages to w1smh@mailman.qth.net -->> NOTE: Now "mailman" is required. <<-- Thank you & 73, Clayton L.

Many other hams respond by saying how portable it is and how great is the battery life. Some point out the radio's "dirty" RF output characteristics while others retort by the old saying "you get what you pay for, it's a low-cost do-all rig." My opinion is every radio isn't for everybody. If I wanted to experiment with portable, low power operations I would probably use my FT-100, a gel cell, and a wire. Enjoy the article. 73/Clayton ------------------------------- Clayton L.

I don't operate the Real bands any more, but, wahat I remember is that a whole bunch of folks were trying to penetrate the LOW POWER market back then.
