Same thing happened to me when I tried to join Ken Arcs RC-110 group. I got two messages back that said the moderator failed to allow me in the group. Guess I must be a troublemaker or something.

Ken, Doug and all... I've had a similar experience with the Spectra group. I wanted to subscribe, since I am in the process of converting several Spectra 900 radios for ham use. I have tried three times to subscribe, and each time my request for subscription went unanswered and not acted upon. I got a message each time that my request had "expired" due to the non-action of the moderator. I was given the opportunity to re-submit my request, which I did twice. There will not be a third time. I don't know if my experience was because the moderator was too busy, unable to moderate due to other factors (illness, extended vacation) or if for some reason I have been "black balled" -- who knows... but it certainly left a sour taste in my mouth when I found a group that I felt I could be an active contributor to and learn from, and was not allowed - for whatever reason - to become a member of said group. Sorry for the tirade/rant. This subject struck a sensitive chord with me. I also apologize to this group's moderator for my off-topic comments. Mark - N9WYS -----Original Message----- From: Repeater-Builder@yahoogroups.com On Behalf Of Doug W7FDF Hello Ken: I am a subscriber of the MSF5000 list and just a few minutes ago [6:15am MST Friday], I went over to check the most recent activity. There have been two new members added between March 22 and March 27 and, several posts have been made between March 20 and 23rd. So indeed, the MSF5000 list is NOT dead. Now why the list Owner/Admin person has not added you to the rolls, is beyond my comprehension. Doug W7FDF Vail,Arizona U.S.A.
