Brian,

The silence of the many way outnumber the critics.  You're OK.

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.
