Thanks Colin,

Because of some new Yahoo shenanigans we had a somewhat interesting time trying 
shift over our sizable membership and numerous files, but Groups.io did finally 
come up with a sneaky solution to help us get the "seamless transfer" that 
other hobby groups have enjoyed.

Well done!

The writing has been on the wall for a long time -

I managed to migrate 5 groups - it was pretty seamless at the time - but

[IRCA] Ultralight Radio Group Moves to Groups.io

[Gary DeBock]

Following the general trend among radio hobby groups, the 1,500+ member 
Ultralight Radio enthusiast group has moved its home base from Yahoo to 
Groups.io. This is a general notice to other radio hobby groups before the 
Yahoo site is closed down.

Founded in early 2008 by the late John Bryant and yours truly, the Ultralight 
Radio group has enjoyed steady worldwide growth for over ten years, leading the 
way in portable radio modification, FSL antenna development, ocean cliff 
propagation discoveries and the new "Frequent Flyer" transoceanic DXing sport 
(using a compact FSL antenna on exotic ocean beaches). We feel honored to have 
many of the hobby leaders among our membership, and look forward to continued 
innovation, exploration and excitement in the coming years!
