[EAS] Welcome!

[Richard Rudman]

There has been a flurry of new subscriptions to this list in the last week -- no doubt triggered by both questions about and changes to the National test next week.

If you are new to the list, all activity since it started has been archived on the EAS Forum website:

http://eas.radiolists.net/

We try as best possible to post the latest EAS news there. Barry Mishkind who as you probably know runs the BDR has been posting changes on that site almost as fast as they have been coming out. With all the changes, it has been hard for all of us to keep up, so we do the best we can.

Please do not be shy about asking questions, or making your feelings known. This site was established as a place where we can all learn and share. FYI, we have had to moderate content at a minimal level because everyone so far has been very professional, respectful and courteous in their messages.

Regards,

Richard Rudman
