Broken Threads

George Victor-2
Hi Folks,
Please don't take this the wrong way, this is just my opinion.

I feel that if a thread is started, all of the related replies should
be kept within that particular thread.
That makes the thread easier to read and the whole mail system more
clean and organized.

Just looking back a couple of days:
We have -

2 threads on k2 Diversity (with 4 messages in each)
3 threads on K3 and HRD (6 in one 1 in the other and 1 called Ham
Radio Deluxe With K3)
2 threads on Bail Height
2 on New Zealand WOW
3 on AF Gain Delay
And now we have 4 separate threads going on Band Button.

Wouldn't be better, easier to follow and messages would not be lost if
the broken threads were combined?

Just my 2¢,
George

Now we've got 3 separate threads asking people not to have separate
threads...  How ironic...  :)

Yes it is ironic Brett,
Sorry about that, I had a problem with the elecraft mailman this
morning. The messages were getting kicked back.
Apologies,
George

Re: Broken Threads

George,

I received the daily digest a few years until a few days ago, so double
topics can easily be generated. I changed it to receive all separate mail to
keep up with the latest answers to the questions asked as a new K3 owner.
Even now it is not easy to find wheather a topic is new or old between all
QRM about a band switch label or 21.5 wpm cw speed.

I hope this Elecraft reflector doesn 't end up as a chatbox, just like the
DX cluster which was also not meant for that.

K3 1184
