It is one thing to offer personal gear for sale but you are clearly promoting a business here and it should be done in private email.

Jack, since you're new here, this indiscretion will probably go un-commented on.

But, let me warn you... if someone gets a hold of this thing because it just 'struck them wrong' then there's fixing to be a fire-storm, for your comments and it ain't gonna be from me. Get your asbestos suit out! ;-)

In the future, before you just blurb these things out, here are 3 simple rules to remember about the AM Reflector mailing list;

#1) This list is -for- the Amateurs who like and enjoy technical discussion about Old Radio.

#2) This list server space is provided by QSL.net

#3) This is was setup for -us- old radio enthusiasts through QSLnet by W5AMI. If you have a problem with content on the list, go see Brian. Don't put it on the list for open controversy. Brian moderates this list and he does a damn fine job of it.

We've -been- through the AF4K (and others) issue of 'selling' items on the list. Talk to Brian/W5AMI for more details on what the whole of the group said about it.

That's about it from me.


Careful with what you say 'on' the list. To be honest, Jack... your comment of

should have been sent to AF4K in direct mail, and not sent to the list. When comments are solicited, -then- you can put it on the list.

Did you know that the AM Reflector mailing list has been in place, and serving AM-minded hams, since the mid/late 1990's? We've pretty much -been- through anything you can think of.
Let Brian/W5AMI do his job.  He does it well.
