I first became a member of the Towertalk reflector at least 25 years ago, when there was no CQ-Contest and we felt the need to mention "tower" or "antenna" somewhere in our contesting-related messages to avoid (we thought) the moderator's wrath.

Looking back, do any of you greybeards out there remember where the name "reflector" came from? I much prefer it to "list" or "listserv"
