>>> 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.
