I've seen the same thing on the Milsurplus list: someone gets a woody for their favorite piece of surplus, starts 'their own' list for that particular radio, then includes the address of the original list and several others in any query they send out. If you were foolish enough to sign up for the new list, you get the same message multiple times. I've never figured out if they feel special for doing it, or actually believe they are offering some great service to the rest of us. I tried subscribing to a couple years ago and ended up dumping them from lack of activity. Once the excitement over the new toy subsides a bit, it gets quiet pretty fast. IIRC, someone did this last year with a 'Collins 20V' list. Wonder how that went? Personally, I'd always feel I was missing out on the true talent available on this list and AMfone because so many users will have zero interest in yet another list (read 'more email, more spam, more deleting to do). Ego-driven, perhaps? Nothing else seems to make any sense. ~ Todd, KA1KAQ ______________________________________________________________ Our Main Website: http://www.amfone.net AMRadio mailing list Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ List Rules (must read!): http://w5ami.net/amradiofaq.html List Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/amradio Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.html Post: mailto:[email protected] To unsubscribe, send an email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word unsubscribe in the message body.
