Re: [Elecraft] Elecraft Equipment chat group
I recently signed up for the eHam list which is organized by interest area, posted a couple questions, received relevant answers & comments and am not bothered by OT stuff. Those here with all these OT messages would probably get better info from a wider audience. I joined this group because I'm an Elecraft owner and found it to be a good resource. 100 posts per day, mostly OT, or Me Too is too much. Occasionally I've taken the whole mailbox and sorted it on the From column, reading only posts from Eric & Wayne. 73 Don K2BIO __ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to arch...@mail-archive.com

Re: [Elecraft] Elecraft Equipment chat group
Not at all interested. It takes me maybe 15 seconds to scan through the Subject headers to delete the ones I'm not interested in, or have become bored with, and I get just as many messages as you do. Besides, unless you plan to moderate your list (which will take you FAR longer to do than liberal use of your delete key on the current list and take up even more of your time explaining why you blocked a particular post) your new list is likely to end up with a similar composition to this one ... maybe even more given that Wayne and Eric have more street cred than you do. As someone else just posted, it's human nature to pollute. Lastly, I'm not interested in every Elecraft product, and I'd still have to do the same scan/delete process on your list that I do on this one.

[Elecraft] Elecraft Equipment chat group
I think the Elecraft group is fine but that many of the OT subjects can better be handled on groups for those subjects. For example most of the NVIS discussion could have been on the Tower Talk group. Simple solution would be for this group to stay more on the Elecraft topic. -- Jim Cassidy KI7Y __ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to arch...@mail-archive.com

It would just wind up duplicating some of the posts here in terms of topics. The more people include keywords in the subject lines the easier it is for those of us who know how to use mail filters to automatically filter out emails about unwanted topics. For the non-filtered content the Delete key is all that is needed. I read a few of the NVIS related messages. Now I automatically hit the Delete key for any other messages with that word in the subject line. My email program looks for 15 different references to Elecraft products in the subject line and tosses those messages in to the trash folder when seen. That leaves me with a folder of K2 related messages and another filter puts any remaining Elecraft messages in to a non-K2 folder. It makes the list a lot more managable. -- Cheers!

Re: [Elecraft] Elecraft Equipment chat group
Not a chance. Frankly, as a K1 and K2 owner, all the *K-line* posts are OT to me. But there hasn't been an OT topic on this reflector that I didn't find informative. This is a very tech savvy and interesting group, and I value their input. It takes a long time to build a viable community of any kind. This one is mature and healthy. I filter out everything with a specific K-line model number. When a new product is announced (like the KPA1500) it isn't filtered so I can learn something about it. I have never owned an amp in 60 years and chances are excellent I never will, but the product is still interesting--I read every post. At some point, I'll add it to my filter. Why are filters so difficult to do that someone would think starting a new group would be easier? This OT argument goes on in every single group from time to time. It's the ULTIMATE example of OT imaginable. Eric KE6US On 5/1/2017 5:05 AM, Michael Walker wrote: Hi All I am thinking of starting an Elecraft email forum that would focus only on Elecraft equipment.

Re: [Elecraft] Elecraft Equipment chat group
Been there done that already. Tried that a couple of years ago... got 8 new users, including Wayne, and there were no exchanges. It is one more list.

Re: [Elecraft] Elecraft Equipment chat group
Hi Mike, I've seen this attempted with other forums for other topics. Inevitably, the OT emails reach the same level in the new forum as well. It's just human nature. For my part, I'll stick with this Elecraft forum. - 73 and good DX de Mike, K6MKF, Past President - NCDXC > -Original Message- > From: Elecraft [mailto:elecraft-boun...@mailman.qth.net] On Behalf Of > Michael Walker > Sent: Monday, May 01, 2017 5:06 AM > To: elecraft@mailman.qth.net > Subject: [Elecraft] Elecraft Equipment chat group > > Hi All > > I am thinking of starting an Elecraft email forum that would focus only on > Elecraft equipment. > > While I like this list for the Elecraft discussions, about 50% of it is related to off > topic items and they flood my inbox with hundreds of emails. > > How many of you would be interested? > > 73 all, Mike va3mw > _ > _ > Elecraft mailing list > Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft > Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm > Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net > > This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net > Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message > delivered to mike.flow...@gmail.com __ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to arch...@mail-archive.com
Re: [Elecraft] Elecraft Equipment chat group
Someone did change this to OT, but it really isn't. As others have also mentioned is that this is a list that is heavily diluted by so many OT issues. This is the only list that I am part of that varies like a club meeting. And, that is OK, it just isn't OK for all of us. For those that have replied, directly to me, I'm running higher than 50% for a unique list. I'm only just outlining a need. many thanks Mike va3mw __ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to arch...@mail-archive.com

Re: [Elecraft] Elecraft Equipment chat group
Without a doubtcount me out! Sometimes it is true that off topic discussions persist way too long, but we just have to keep in mind that these guys own and are responsible for running a profitable company and we should be grateful that they even have any time to occasionally monitor this reflector. In my humble opinion, there is nothing calling for another reflector except for those who may be too lazy to reach for their delete key. Let's not try to fix something that is not broken! 73, Tom - W4BQF -Original Message- From: Elecraft [mailto:elecraft-boun...@mailman.qth.net] On Behalf Of Michael Walker Sent: Monday, May 1, 2017 8:06 AM To: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net Subject: [Elecraft] Elecraft Equipment chat group Hi All I am thinking of starting an Elecraft email forum that would focus only on Elecraft equipment.

Count me in for a new group! With all the NVIS-CB-Earthquake stuff and other O.T. posts, I'm outtta here. As a new Elecraft owner, I signed on to learn about Elecraft.
