Hello, welcome to the Electric Handbag,

Just a few notes on how to use this group -

Please try to keep on topic, which means discussion of Yaesu FT-290's, -690's, 790's and theyre ancillaries. I dont mind the occasional deviation, but please try to stick to the point.

The usual group rules apply - no derogatory comments, no flaming, please be polite, try not to shout (caps lock off!), no Spam, no links to things that are absolutely nothing to do with the group (you can link to, say, a DX page, but not to a dating site). Please remember that other members may be in different countries, speak other languages, and be under different laws and regulations.

IMPRORTANT NOTE - SELLING. (This is a change to the previous rules)
If you have an elctrichandbag, or its ancilliaries to sell, or you need to find a particular item, you may post a For Sale or a Wanted message. However, any actual discussions with buyers or sellers should then be carried out 'off-list'. Please dont post such things to the whole group. If you have lots of things to sell, or they are not directly relevant to these radios, use ebay or the like. Surplus to give away or 'swapsies' are ok.
If you are replying to a For Sale or Wanted, please do so directly to the original poster, not the whole group.

Remember also that other members may be less technically minded or experienced, dont put anyone down for asking daft questions - there are NO stupid questions, only stupid answers!

Above all, be friendly, and enjoy the group. But remember, the owner/moderators decision is final! and i intend to police this group with an iron fist, and maybe occasionally a pointy stick as well...


Look forward to seeing you on the group

Regards

Martin G7MRV
