OK folks. After reading all the input over the last couple of days, I've decided to make a slight course correction in Phono-L's direction. Our new charter is as follows: ---------- The Antique Phonograph List (PHONO-L) is a discussion group primarily devoted to the collection, restoration and preservation of phonographs. Records may be discussed, but serious record/artist discussions are best directed to 78-l. Phonograph-related Buy/Sell/ Trade postings are permitted! ---------- As you can see, I've removed references to pre-1930/tinfoil/cylinder/ 78 rpm. The definition of "antique" is in the eye of the beholder. Try to keep your subject lines on point to help the rest of us too. I'd also like to invite our more silent members to post - at least introduce yourselves - and ask questions. Nobody here will bite and I think you'll find that we have a good depth of knowledgeable & talented folks here. If you don't get an answer, don't take it personally - we probably don't know. Within the next week or so, I hope to have an actual, ever lovin' web page up for Phono-L... so watch for that announcement. Happy Holidays from the entire Phono-L staff, Loran
