A lot of news reading software posts messages to all groups included in the original message, which actually may have had some relevance to amateur radio issues (and therefore info-hams and net.ham-radio) There was a net.tvro for a while, but it went away. Perhaps a new group (say, called mod.telecom.home-sat) could be created for tvro users If there is too much tvro traffic for this group, and we complain enough about it (to the right people), then there may be some relief. Accoring the the usenet 'rules', one criterion for creating a new group is sufficient volume in a current newsgroup to justify spinning it off into a separate one. -- - Ralph Internet: ralphw@c.cs.cmu.edu (cmu-cs-c.arpa) Usenet: ralphw@mit-eddie.uucp Fidonet: Ralph Hyre at Fido #385 Pitt-Bull (or maybe Net 129, node 0) Snail Mail: don't bother -- - Ralph Internet: ralphw@c.cs.cmu.edu (cmu-cs-c.arpa) Usenet: ralphw@mit-eddie.uucp Fidonet: Ralph Hyre at Fido #385 Pitt-Bull (or maybe Net 129, node 0) Snail Mail: don't bother
