How far back should I delete Sked Requests that are obviously old. I know the system automatically matches up Sked Requests based on my profile, but many of them go all the way back to 2002. It apprears that some members post these without cleaning out old requests later. I would like to pursue requests, but would rather not waste my time with what appear to be inactive members. How far back should I delete old requests? What would you all recommend from your experience.

Bill: I think the sked request set-up would be a great and useful tool. I have however replied back to possibly 40 of them over the last couple years...6 or 8 in the last couple weeks to mostly stateside Hams. I have yet to ever get a reply back from any of the stateside Hams wanting to follow through and set-up a sked. I have also sent replies to some DX calls and gotten some very strange replies..."sorry contact by mistake!"..." no contact wanted please do not reply again!".
I say again I think this would be a great and useful tool for all, but from my experience all the replies have yet to yield one contact or sked from the list.
I keep my list down to the last month or 2 but I still am very hesitate to take the time to make replies...they just do not seem to work.
Sorry just my 2 cents worth.
All the Best
