Thread closed. Folks, in the interest of reducing list overload we are making a new addition to the official Elecraft list guidelines.
Once there have been more than 2-3 postings on an Amateur Radio policy topic like this (what's legal, what is, or is not, 'ham radio', no code pro/con etc.) the thread is officially closed. Period. In general, please do not post radio policy or political comments to the Elecraft list. There are plenty of other forums that can accommodate these charged topics. 73, Eric Elecraft List Moderator www.elecraft.com _..._ On Apr 30, 2012, at 5:57 AM, Mark Bayern <[email protected]> wrote: >> "Your using Pactor to email family and friends.
