Did I really get Yahoo and Google mixed up?
I blame it on the lack of brain cells ;-)

Please do Alan, as soon as possible.
Yahoo are too focussed on money grabbing .. eg, Google Maps on WSPR.
Sorry, I know you said respond if you DON'T want to move, but I
wanted to comment anyway.

Hello all I am considering transering the Yahoo Group to groups.io.
which has none of the problems that yahoo has built into their system
and many radio groups have transfered, I am wondering if this move
would encourage those who objected to moving to Yahoo initially would
join us and benefit from the archive that will build there. I would
like to revert to the situation where we operate just one LF Group.
The blacksheep server is very old now and whilst it has been almost
miraculously reliable, this may not necessarily continue. Even so
some have found it difficult to join and some are unable to post.
The advantage to the ''adninistrators'' would be to gain control and
have a server that has responsive support unlike Yahoo. Groups.io
also has the facility to set up sub groups so that VLF could for
instance be in a subgroup, likewise wspr, EbNaut, Opera, if required.
From he Yahoo group we lose the necessity of having a Yahoo email
address to
access the web site, and the adverts that get in the way. And the
occasional bursts of duplicate messages and delayed posts.
Please respond to me if you would NOT want to join groups.io
