OK guys, you win. I am seeing the light here. By the way, almost nobody uses that 
ebay-fs QTH group from what I have seen. Almost no traffic, no discussion, no fun, 
no point. I won't bother with it. Maybe it will change. I use eBay very little. 

Apparently I have offended quite a few of you.  I apologize for causing this eruption 
of protest the past week from some of you who were deeply offended by the mention 
of what I thought might be a useful part that I put on eBay.  Sorry for not realizing how 
deeply offensive and divisive that action might become. This is obviously a very, very big 
deal to several here, as they have pointed out quite strongly for a few days now. 

It looks like nobody wants the eBay item that was mentioned anyway.  I know when 
I am not welcome. Some people were annoyed by me, and I am not interesting in 
causing further trouble for others, nor in debating rules rather than radios so I will bow 
out of  here graciously.  Enjoy this group. It can be great a lot of the time. I won't bother 
you guys any more. Duane, I apologize if I broke a rule. I did not see it.  
I am sure I probably missed it. Either way, this group is not for me and I apologize for  
offending some, and for adding to the disruption of things.  So here is the solution for 
all those who have been caught up in the maelstrom. I will unsubscribe and go away. 
Problem solved. 

If anybody is interested in subjects I like to discuss, homebrewing, tube rigs, etc. or to 
buy or sell among each other without panic, there are several other BA groups that 
are tolerant;  I hope it is OK to mention where I will be:  DC Boatanchors, FL Boatanchors, 
Nether.net  Boatanchors, Yahoo Groups, Glowbugs and a few others where the climate 
is more relaxed and the sky isn't falling. 

I wish each of you nothing but the very best. You are a great bunch of guys. 

73 and Goodbye - Bry Carling, AF4K
