New Elecraft Message Board?

Bill W4ZV


G4ILO:
 >The list archives would be an excellent tool for those who just want
to follow specific threads of interest, but they waste way to much
space displaying completely irrelevant header information, so you have
to scroll down to read the actual text, and there is no easy way to
send an in-context reply to a post.

         I beg to differ on your last sentence above and
cite this post as an example of doing what you want.  It's
extremely simple to do but requires you to do more than
simply hit reply.  All of the features mentioned (sorting
by thread, web-based presentations, etc) are completely
possible within the present structure.  You just have to
take the time and effort to learn to do it!

         Leave it alone.  Let those who want to change it
spend 5 minutes learning how to do what they need (below).

                                 73,  Bill  W4ZV

P.S.  Time for our monthly deja vu:
