[Elecraft] Previous rig for sale here...

[AA6VO]

Tell Greg to repost the ad giving his contact info (email, phone). He
should spell it phonetically so a bot cannot pick it up. Also include his
fathers call sign to add credibility. Also, to help make a sale, he should
have pictures available on another site or by email.

Sadly there are many folks committing Internet fraud, and the savvy users
on this reflector are just trying to help prevent a ripoff.
