If we're voting, I vote for minimal censorship of what people want to send
and maximal usefulness (like Motherhood and Apple Pie, eh wat?).

If certain subjects really inundate us, I suppose they could be set up as a
separate mailing list.

I am personally glad to have the ARRL bulletins here as I don't often take the
time to copy them on the air, and they usually are of interest at least for
further dissemination to our local club.

As for scanners, they are a subject of interest to some hams, so I vote for
scanner info (product info) to be on the net.

As for lists of frequencies in general, I would think that would not be of
general interest, but I believe the info was put on the net in response to
a specific request.  Presumably this info flow will eventually subside and
thereafter can be obtained from archives.

By the way, I would find it useful to see a little tutorial on how to access
the archives.  Could somebody provide one, with the most useful 'cookbook'
commands and a pointer to any supporting manuals (I believe 'anonymous FTP'
or something was mentioned) ?  'Twould be appreciated.
