    You have my vote on the formation of this group. How about 
    rec.swl..15-30MHz?  Nah, just kidding! Actually I would like
    to see the scanner bands included in this group. I believe there
    are a fair amount of swl'ers that also own scanners. I do.

    I am currently on the SWL mailing list but I believe it is time
    to put this on Usenet. It would be easier to read and better
    organized. I don't know how many times someone has sent out a
    "subscribe" or "unsubscribe" message inadvertently, but it can
    be annoying. Also email brings along a lot of garbage after the
    message. Most annoying for one or two line messages.

    When this group forms and I hope it will, I would like to see who's
    out there, what equipment they have, how they got started, their
    specific interests..etc. Program announcements, tips and techniques
    etc. will make this group very worthwhile.

    Thanks to Richard for starting this discussion and good luck!
