Claude, thanks for your reply. Maybe what we need to do is set up a
Volksmeter Users Group. Not sure how to do that and I like the server
software based forums better than this kind of mailing list. But there may
be a significant cost/time factor involved in setting it up and managing it.
I'm very happy with my Volksmeter, and my problem is that this is a time
intensive hobby and I spend time on it in spurts and I don't spend enough
time on it regularly to stay on top of things.
Do you have any specific questions or issues? Maybe we can sort them out
here, or I think my personal email is listed below.
Regards,
Bob Thomasson
