After thinking about feedback overnight, here are my current thoughts on
naming:

	rec.radio.dxing
	rec.radio.monitoring

I still don't think they're perfect, but... (and I *hate* the term dx. Don't
ask me why, it's not logical...)

Yup. I have some interest in 2Meter and 10Meter, but not enough to learn
code (again. I studied for my novice and was up to 2WPM when I dropped out
because it wasn't worth the hassles to me -- I could have finished my novice
in about a month if I'd wanted to. This is one reason why I find the
code/nocode arguments so amusing and frustrating...)
