Being suspicious is one thing but to impinge the reputation of someone (especially someone you don't even know) without the slightest bit of evidence is wrong. In fact, it is demeaning to this ham radio community in my opinion.
Someone posted evidence as writing K-3 and P-3 instead of K3 and P3 as evidence of a scammer. Are you kidding me? That is your evidence!? Scammers are definitely smarter than that. If they are going to go to the trouble of creating a very detailed equipment list as was shown, they would get the details correct, its not rocket science. I have written P-3 myself before and the only reason is that sometimes my spell checkers will complain if I do not have a hyphen (other times, other software that is, they do not complain). 73, phil, K7PEH > On Dec 12, 2014, at 11:52 AM, Jim Brown <j...@audiosystemsgroup.com> wrote: > > On Fri,12/12/2014 11:31 AM, Phil Wheeler wrote: >> Not to say it's a scam; but there is something unusual going on. > > You guys sure are suspicious, and with no good reason.
