I basically agree with the proposal for the new group, as it more-or-less suits *my* interests and needs. My only quibble is that I'm not sure if the new group will or will not be open to discussion of non-broadcast dx, e.g. "utes" (utility stations), and I think that it should be. In regard to the question of the best name for the group, "rec.swl" is proabably as good as any. I'd vote against "rec.broadcast-dx", as it would (if in name only) exculde our ute-dx-ing brothers and sisters. -- Ben Krepp From uunet: uunet!inmet!benk From DDN: benk@inmet.inmet.com
