note : personal reply Wow ... somebody writing an off topic post (it had nothing to do with Elecraft products) to complain about off topic posts. Talk about dripping with irony. Besides, it is a trivial exercise to speed read through the topic headers and delete the messages you don't

Let me clarify my post... I agree with Harry in that there are a lot of off topic discussions. The Elecraft related stuff, like covers, accessories, which were designed for Elecraft products, etc., are not the issue for me. 73s and thanks, Dave NK7Z http://www.nk7z.net On 05/27/2017 01:51

Currently, the only “list overload” is now the multiple threads on list overload …. something like a self-fulfilling prophecy. Grant NQ5T K3 #2091, KX3 #8342 __ Elecraft mailing list Home:

There is an absolutely wonderful tool called PopFile that sits between your mail client and your mail server, reads all your incoming mail and classifies it. You set up folders, call them K3S or KX3 or Antennas or QRM, and you start clicking on messages and telling PopFile "this is Antennas"

The list is pretty much turning into a captive audience for some tohawk their wares and for others it has become a bit of a soap boxdroning on about off topic subjects for far longer than they need to be. It's one thing to post a short for sale and respond off list for a personal sale. But some
