and this highlights a problem as I see it, when new echos are added m pref is to add all nodes to it, so sub them in and they unsub if they don't want it... to do it the other way means many nodes that may be and perhaps running on auto for a good chunk of time will never know stuff exists.
As a node, I still didn't know those new echos existed until someone mentioned them. But if there was anything in my logs saying there were unrecognized echos, I may have missed that in my logs.
Hmm OK. Yeah I favour adding nodes by default to new echos created else some on auto minus an active sysop would never even know they were there once created at the hub. I can see merits in a monthly BOT post to somewhere also promoting the echos... thing is they are in the nodelist and infopack hatched every week too :(

I didn't know FSXNet had a music echo. I'd like to add it.

That is why FSX needs its own sysop area with minimum piffle so that announcements about new echoes don't get lost in the dross of every day conversation.
