The subscription form has now been modified at http://www.orbitcoms.com I found that the unwanted fields were removable and have removed them. Most of the remaining fields are now optional. I am committed to promoting a sense of community and team work and therefore do not want people to feel let out because of unnecessary details on a subscription form. You may now like to take another look and subscribe to this group. Thanks for the feedback, and helping us to perfect our business system and better understand how people feel about these issues.
