Re: Announcements of Our New Group
It's a real shame that the AMPS@... turned into what it did. I quit amps@ about 2 months ago because of the nazi style control and censuring. I refuse to belong to any GROUP that censures.

Re: Announcements of Our New Group

Announcements of Our New Group
It does not appear that the amps reflector will allow mentioning of this group. We must spread the word by direct E-Mails to our friends. In the amps archives, there is only one message posted today,

Hello to the new group. I purchased a Henry 3K Ultra from a friend. Little did either of us know, but a mouse decided to build a nest on top of the tube's cooler. Apparently he liked smoke blown up
