Terry, this really is a tempest in a teapot. This is the first time I recall, and I've been on Towertalk since it was born, that anything involving Champion Radio's customer relations has ever come up.

Towertalk is THE place for information, not just on towers, but on antennas, feedlines, matching and switching systems, and the like. There probably are better sources for VHF, UHF and microwave, but Towertalk has the critical mass to be the single best place to come for everything else.

I've been messing with mailing lists for a long time, and my experience says that it is quite easy to fragment a given topic area into competing groups or groups with focuses that are too narrow, so no value results. Let's not spoil a good thing. This is THE place to lurk.

Being new to this list and this metal structure knowledge base I wonder is
there another list not run by a vendor that has the information that is on
this list?  I learn a lot from people here but I strongly do believe the
moderator should be vendor neutral.   Thanks in advance for any advice of
good places to "lurk".
