That list is an invitation only list.  I could knock on the door but they
didn't let me in for reasons known only to them.

Hi Michael,
The info I sent about the list was:

if you are interested, there is a list which has been recently started
specifically as a place for scanner hobbyists who are blind to gather and
swap ideas, info, etc. It is the "Monitoring Blind" list and you can send a
blank email to:
[log in to unmask]
to subscribe.

We will probably also point you to Radio Reference. It is a good source.
Also, you might want to find a local scanner group for info.
