Only serious business instead of amateur stuff... Again amateur radio apparatus is left on the extreme right lane and probably soon in the ditch if the ISS amateur radio apparatus is not put back in service soon! I asked this question about an hundred times: why they don't put the ISS cross band repeater on? It can run unattended and there is no risk the batteries get down as those in the camera. It will also send the QRP'er away off the other sat as the ISS repeater is very very easy to hear and work too.
Great promoting asset collecting floating dust in space.
Wow, you never know when your threshold will be reached, but this is mine. This list never seems to miss an opportunity to complain about the state of affairs, but always seems to miss opportunities to actually do anything positive. I've reached my personal limit of grouchery. Complain all you want from your position in the ditch, I'm hitting the road.

Mark,
I see your point, my index finger needs therapy from the repeated delete activity. I can only comment that occasionally their is some insight, knowledge point of view that is fresh and worth keeping, and for that I remain. I believe if a volunteer came forward to add a searchable archive to the BB, we might not be having this discussion.

Hi Mark, I certainly understand your decision. Another solution you may consider, if your email client supports it, is to place the regular trolls on your 'block sender list'. You can also filter some key words in incoming message subject lines to reduce the clutter even more. It's not a perfect solution but it does reduce the noise a bit. Steve .. AI7W lm 2270
