Here are listings of information about E-mail LISTS that you can join and participate in with other people with similar interests to your own. Most of these are for sub-specialties related to HAM RADIO or some other subject that I enjoy!
I hope that YOU will find the information useful too!
ONE MAJOR SUGGESTION that will help you if you subscribe to multiple lists and wish to seperate out your e-mails, the best way is to use a E-MAIL reader program like PEGASUS E-mail or EUDORA. These and other sophisticated e-mail reader programs will let you use MAIL-FILTERING to send these messages into their own FOLDER.
You can download either of those two programs off the World Wide Web.
Enjoy!
SEARCH MY WEB SITE!

The OTRIG mailing list is designed to be a forum for discussions concerning amateur radio equipment that is no longer in production. It is expected that members of the list will not only post messages concerning equipment of older vintage that is for sale, but also equipment that they desire to obtain. Questions and answers concerning modifications are encouraged.
Participants are from around the world; please keep polite especially if someone makes what looks like to us a silly mistake.
This list does NOT send your message back to you. If you don't get any replies, and you suspect you're not reaching the list...send email to: looptest@fablotz.min.net - The system will return your message as a confirmation that you're making it to the server.

RULES FOR GATEWAY USE
DO NOT POST UENCODED FILES VIA THIS LIST. Your name will be removed from the list if you make this type of post.
Use common sense in quoting replies...just because your mailer quotes the entire message is NOT a reason for you to do it. Some folks are paying for their band width...they and my gateway equipment doesn't need to be beaten to death by over quotes.
Should the postmaster at this gateway receive excessive error messages from your provider about mailbox full, bad address, etc., your name will be removed from the list. Once you've taken care of the problem, feel free to subscribe again.
You may also add your personal information to the mailling list subscriber database. To get help with the database, send email to:
membadd@fablotz.min.net
the message body should read
find: help
The subscriber database is also located at fablotz.min.net. To receive help with the database, send email to:
memfind@fablotz.min.net
the message body should read

Thanks for requesting this information.

You will receive a confirmation message and a copy of the latest swap list. Please send Additions to, or Deletions from the list to craswaplist@rmsd.com
SPARKS: VLF Amateur Radio
I have heard from a subscriber to this list that our ongoing discussion on the 600 meter band question is off topic, and that those of us who are interested in this should take our discussion somewhere else.
In addition to the "off topic" problem, there is the additional concern for us 600 meter fans of "securiity" leaks.
After much thought, I have decided to provide another list for us who are interested in furthering an attempt to gain a 600 meter band for us.
This new list will be the SPARKS list. I have subscribed 23 people from this list who have expressed an interest in the topic under discussion. I will send a short test message to those people shortly. If anyone who gets that message does NOT want to be on that list, please post me privately and I will immediately take you off.
If there is anyone here who IS interested in our topic and does NOT receive a test message, please post a message to:
majordomo@piobaire.mines.uidaho.edu
with ONLY the words
subscribe sparks
in the BODY of the message
or let me know so I can add you manually.

Knight Lites QRP LIST NEWLY updated information:
KnightLites QRP CLub List
Welcome to the klqrp mailing list!
To subscribe: majordomo@applegate.org
In the body of the note, type the following two lines:
Info
Subscribe klqrp
That's it!
The KLQRP list is for discussion of activities, like technical projects, special operating events like Field Day or expeditions to the NC Lighthouse locations, get-togethers like meetings at member's houses, events like the hamfests, or other special events.
Here is a bit of philosophy from the list manager (Dave, WA4NID). Let me say that I do NOT plan to be a list policeman, in the sense of regulating or moderating the topics of discussion. Everyone is urged to freely post to these lists and suggest topics for consideration. It is hoped that the lists can become one mode of communication for KnightLite members and other interested hams, which encourages camaraderie and progress in amateur radio pursuits of all types. I hope that people will use these lists to keep in touch with the group as a whole, and to arrange meetings with specific members, and to discuss any QRP or radio-related ideas or plans.
The one (and only) thing that will NOT be tolerated on the lists is profanity or other uncivil behavior.

HAM RADIO HISTORY
There is a very interesting group of E-mail lists at:
www.egroups.com
One that I saw that lloks good is the Ham Radio History group at:
HAM-RADIO-HISTORY
Ham Radio (Amateur Radio) has been in existence for nearly one hundred years. The original old timers and the original Elmers are gone. In order to research and preserve as much of our hobby's past as possible, I have established this forum in an attempt to achieve that end. Everyone is invited to contribute whatever trivia, facts or recollections of ham radio's past that they can.
Even today, some our most common usage, nomenclature, procedures and traditions can only be traced back to murky origins and "folk lore". Help preserve Ham Radio's past and help uncover some of our lost origins by sharing what you know about it today.
Thanks de Pete, KC8ER
