>>> 425 DX NEWS * MAILING LIST PROBLEMS <<<
Owing to the growing number of subscribers, the 425 DX News Mailing Lists are
having serious problems beyond our control, and there is a fairly high risk
that they simply stops working. We are now working on widening the number of
volunteers involved in the time consuming
mailing list and web site
administration, in order to provide the reliable service our readers used to
enjoy. At all events, 425 DX News continues being compiled and made available
on the PacketCluster and via the DX Mailing Lists. Thank
you for being
patient during this period of transition, and please pass the word
on to
425DXN subscribers.
