I hate to totally block people who arguably have some useful things to post
to the newsgroup. But the content on the thread about travelling waves
versus standing waves has become so dominated by one person that there is
no way to end it except by filtering all messages to
rec.radio.amateur.antennas to eliminate the dominant poster. So I have not
only blocked articles from his web site, I am blocking any article which
contains his name. So if you reply to him, I am sorry but I will not be
able to see your remarks. I know that no one is likely to lose any sleep
about my actions. From now on, I hope there will be articles about antenna
construction and modelling because that will probably be all that I am able
to read. 73.

Hello Ken,

From your comment, it appears that you
are seeing all new posts to the group in
chronological order. That can be very
frustrating.

You may not be aware that most
newsreaders will sort messages by thread
if so instructed. That way an entire
thread consisting of even thousands of
posts will appear in your newsreader as
a single header (unexpanded). There are
usually no more than a few new threads
per day on the newsgroup so you can
choose which threads you want to follow
without seeing any posts to the threads
that don't interest you. Sort of like
scanning the headlines. When you see a
thread of interest, you can expand it
and see the headers of all the posts in
that thread.

You can't control which threads are
posted to the newsgroup, but you can
make it easier to read only those that
interest you.
