Wow. Free ads. Brings a few questions to mind. For some reason, "why?" wasn't one of them. ;-)
I'm frustrated by classified ad systems that no one sees. What kind of traffic does your site generate? Or are you hoping the "free ads" thing will help generate some traffic? I guess my real question here is, which one do you have, the chicken or the egg?
Also, if I considered displaying my phone number in an ad, why would I care if my email address were displayed or not? Personally, I'd post my email address long before I'd consider displaying my phone number in an ad. Spam I can deal with. Nut jobs are the real scary things.
Think there aren't nut jobs watching? A guy went "postal" the other day on QRP-L because he was too dopey to unsubscribe himself. Said he was persecuted by the government. Yeah, okay, whatever.
Curious minds and all that.
Tnx.

Need to dispose of ham gear without paying fees? Looking for ham gear? Tired of responding to stale ads that haven't been updated/deleted?
The Zerobeat.net Classified Ad system offers free ads for those wishing to buy/sell/trade amateur radio equipment at:
www.zerobeat.net/classpro/
The Classified Ad system is open for all...There are a few categories, you can select whether or not your city, state and phone number is displayed...and your email address is NOT exposed on the web(but folks can send you private mail).
So...give it look and perhaps list some of the things that you want or want to get in the hands of another ham.
If you've ever been frustrated by classified ad systems that lists items that were sold years ago...this system has auto-delete based on time.
Each ad is reviewed before posting to the system to aid in protection against spam and inappropriate items.
