Re: test from Connie

 

It seems to be working. I use often with groups I belong to; QRP, Yaesu radios, Kenwood radios I use the most. Now I will add W6UQ.io

This isn't a chat. It's a message thread on an forum. Messages are not realtime like a chat unless people are logged in an watching for updates. In general usage a forum is asynchronous.
?
There is a chat function in groups.io but it just confuses people, in my experience, because people tend not to be logged in and watching for chat messages.?
?
There are also groups.io features for member directory, photos, polls, files, calendar, database, wiki.
Re: starting a chat - please message here... #SMRC #W6UQ #sanmateoradioclub

 

sounds like an example of:
MJ talking about his Steppir antenna. STEPPIR CHAT
Connie talking about how to install a mast. MAST CHAT
Tony talking about this weather station. WEATHER STATION CHAT

If each item is separated?in a CHAT people?would respond to it in 1 hour, 1 day, 1 month......

How does the user pick a specific topic so it stays on topic within that chat?

They click "New Topic" on the left.?

Replace "CHAT" with "Thread" and you have it down.
Re: starting a chat - please message here... #SMRC #W6UQ #sanmateoradioclub

 

That's not a chat.
?
Also, some people get their ?mailing list as a daily digest. It works to be informed but not for interactive discussion.
?
I think 's primary purpose should be a way for the club to make announcements and stay in touch with the club members, and less a channel where anything goes. If gets too much garbage, people will unsubscribe from it, and the club won¡¯t be able to stay in contact?with its members.
?
If the board decides to use ?for the main communication channel, it makes sense to ask the members to join, but you can¡¯t ask them to join and then have ?send dozens of emails with two-word sentences or random stuff not related to the club or hobby as we have on the chat.

If the purpose is one-way, outbound communication then groups.io is not the right tool. Either continue to just use email or an email blast service like mailchimp.
?
When I joined the club via meetup I notes that that app has messaging and a discussion board. Nobody pays much attention to those, it seems.

I received one message on meetup, from Brian when I joined the club.

This is the most recent exchange on the meetup discussion board for San Mateo Radio Club:

Hi all! Stiv Ostenberg, K9STV, Community Outreach Officer for Southern Peninsula Emergency Communications System. We have started a Meetup down south, and are trying to tie together all the Ham Clubs and Organizations in Santa Clara County so events are easier to discover. If you have events you want to open to folks down south, I can grant Host permission to create events on our Meetup. I am trying to pioneer an effort to encourage Elmers to host events, and I have some guidelines to help them get started.

That wonderful news and a fabulous idea. My name is Tony KM6ETX, and although I am not an admin, I think that's great and look forward to meeting you guys.
Re: starting a chat - please message here... #SMRC #W6UQ #sanmateoradioclub

 

Understood.
If there is a few announcements?for nets, monthly meetings, and a weekend activity it would likely?be ok for most people. As soon as there is back and forth chatter I think some would unsubscribe or create a filter for [email protected]? to go to a folder to view later.
