Finding K2 in Subject Line
Locked
 
|
Dear Fellow K2 Enthusiasts,
Speaking strictly for myself, I've grown tired of the endless "Lisa-grams" and such. On many occasions I have gone through an entire digest and found nothing about K2's. It has become burdensome to me, and I have solved my problem by using the "Find" function in my Eudora Client and it looks for "K2" in the subject line. If no K2's are found, I just delete the entire digest. It saves me a LOT of time ! I'm interested in hearing from other K2 enthusiasts who have Eudora and what solutions they have found. There are a lot of good messages about antennas and other things that I'm missing, and if anyone knows how to substitute a "Find K2" for a "Discard K3" that would do a lot better job for me. Thanks, TR, WB6TMY Tel: . . . 707-832-4304 _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: [hidden email] You must be a subscriber to post to the list.

TR...
Just switched to Thunderbird from Eudora, but had filters in Eudora that solved most of the "K3" overburden [and I'm doing the same thing with Thunderbird]. I made a filter for 'K3' and directed all that to the waste basket. I recently made one for "Lisagram" and "roofing filter," both going to trash. I made a filter for 'K2' and directed that to a special bin [?]. Then, everything else from Elecraft went to its own bin. That worked okay for the most part. I tend to agree about your basic issue. I'm sure the K3 troops are having fun, but it is a bit monotonous at times. OTOH, how many posts have you seen like "...#XXXX up and running..." which I'm sure don't do much for the K3 people. Pays your money and takes your choice. ...robert #5957 TR, WB6TMY K2 #838 wrote: > Dear Fellow K2 Enthusiasts, > > Speaking strictly for myself, I've grown tired of the endless > "Lisa-grams" and such. > > On many occasions I have gone through an entire digest and found nothing > about K2's. > > It has become burdensome to me, and I have solved my problem by using > the "Find" function in my Eudora Client and it looks for "K2" in the > subject line.

I'm not sure about putting them in the trash, as there are still some
interesting discussions, from which I learn something. I have one for the K3, one for the K2, and everything else goes in the 'Elecraft' folder. Then I can read the folders in the order and timeliness I choose. Currently the K3 is in the lead, followed by the K2, with Elecraft bringing up the rear. The Elecraft folder is also the place where all those misbehaving people that do not put a rig in the subject line, end up. 73 Dave Wilburn K4DGW K2/100 - S/N 5982 K3/100 - S/N 766 "For those who fought for it, freedom has a flavor the protected will never know."

I have a special filter too. It filters out ECN or Elecraft CW Net into a special folder. That way I can keep track of all the email I receive before and after the nets. Then there is the filter for K3 which goes into its own folder. Lastly there is everything else which happens on the Reflector. There are way too many email messages in my inbox each day. Often 600 or more. Jeez!

Hash: SHA1 I've got my filters setup to send my mail to separate folders based on the subject line K2, K3 etc....If those two parameters aren't met then the mail stays in the general "elecraft" folder. I have been seeing more and more posts by people who are ignoring the courtesy of labeling their messages this way. Just about every thread in the last two months about the K3 firmware is a fine example. Of course when the great unwashed hoard don't pay any attention to the many times enunciated list rule of putting K3 in the subject line if the message has ANYTHING WHAT-SO-EVER TO DO WITH A K3, then that filtering system will be useless. If the list can't, for whatever reason, bring themselves to do this then Elecraft should create a separate list for the K3. Why is it so hard from grown people to identify their messages by the rig they are talking about? Want to send a message to the group about your K3, first characters in the subject line should be K3. Same applies to the other Elecraft models. Robert G.

I had to join www.nabble.com and unsubscribe to the emails. Nabble has a filter that seperates the subject line. I just got too tired of hearing about the K3; they made me second guess my purchase of a K2. OTOH, the K3 seems to have it's share of problems... Besides, I built the K2 and was on the air LONG before most people got their K3!
