This seems very unfair to Juan. Juan in no way solicited the generosity
that poured forth nor
did he offer the description of himself that lead to it. He placed a
simple WTB post which
the moderator said was an OK use of the reflector.

He says he's got a Flex 1000. It's not like he doesn't have a way to get
on
the air and enjoy his hobby.
I just upgraded my shack from an old Yaesu 817 to a Flex 3000. By doing
the
normal method of scrimping and saving. I wasn't aware that posting to
every
ham forum until I get contributions was an acceptable method for
upgrading.
I see the ads in QST where you can contribute old ham gear that will get
distributed to people who have NO rig. This seems to make sense to me -
help get a new ham with no radio on the air.
But an upgrade - just cuz there is something new available? Come on.

Con-Man is probably a stretch, older man looking to upgrade his station in
order to play with the latest and greatest before being called home is
probably much closer to reality.

After seeing the generosity shown by many members of this forum, when I
saw
this post to the K3 forum this morning - well I guess all I can say is
that
I am shocked.
Maybe he thinks he can get the good folks on that list to pony up a K3 for
him too. Maybe he's going to write an article on "How I assembled a
multi-op
station for free"
Please publish this to the list - this guy is a con.

Hi all!
During the last four years I have owned and enjoyed a Flex SDR-1000. Last
Sunday, during a picnic with Hams at a park in SW Miami, Julio, AD4Z, gave
me a demonstration of his K3 and I was truly impressed with his radio.
I have been a ham for 50 years, 71 years old retired and love this
wonderful
hobby.
I would love to own a minty K3. If you would like to sell yours, please
let
me know.
Sincerely and 73
Juan/K4LCD
Michael Jones KC7FH
