Uselessness

[Guest Bret]

Mark,

This section, I thought, was a good idea. It was an easy way for those with information to post it in a way that didn't require you to get email, download an attachment, format it, and put it into the correct "library" section immediately; yet it could be available (or corrected by others) immediately.

As it turns-out, either others do not want to contribute this way or have nothing to contribute, or are too shy to contribute, or don't know where the section is or what it is for.

It's a little embarrassing to be the only one with submissions and to be out of things to submit.

Therefore, in my opinion, the section is clutter and should go the way of the dinosaur. I would have hoped for more participation.

What's your opinion?

Hi there

I know your question was directed to Mark.

I have downloaded previously several AR sheets:

example;

AR headphone wiring schematic (can be used for other brands)

AR speaker re-finishing (might be useful for other brands as well)

To name but these two here because they both can be used with other brands of equipment.

When I copied them to this site I copied them to the AR section.

If I had chosen this library section, they would be available to everyone rather than just AR readers.

In the AR section they get buried quite quickly, just as if they were a topic of discussion rather than library reference material.

In the future I will download general interest sheets here instead, or as well.

Any suggestions?

Mark is being overworked, thank you very much Mark, for all of your efforts, the site sure looks good.

I think I'll leave this discussion area around for now, because the signal to noise ratio should be very high.

I haven't had much time lately to devote to working on the website, but I will be addressing some of the issues you've brought up in the near future.
