When posts outside the list charter start to overwhelm the list, and we
see the volume of complaints that have been on here recently, people get
gun-shy.
They're afraid to post to the list and add even more angst to the group.
I've asked many times that replies to on-topic, legitimate posts be on-list.
Often, those posts are on topics that I don't care about. I don't have
a K3 or a P3, I'm not a CW op (or a SSB op). To me, those posts are boring.
But they're useful to others, and sometimes there is a gem buried in a
post that is otherwise uninteresting to me.
We (and I mean all of us, myself included) need to learn when to
moderate ourselves -and- we need to be a little more tolerant when there
is a great discussion going on that simply doesn't match our personal
interests.
I would personally be happy if the list volume tripled, as long as we
the additional posts are within the list charter, and as long as we can
be courteous to each other.

The subject is the K3 and it's surrounding hardware. I cannot think of
anything more on topic.
