The guidelines for this news group is at URL:
http://faqs.jmas.co.jp/FAQs/radio/personal-intro
It sez:
The groups r.r.amateur.antenna, .boatanchors, .dx, .equipment, .homebrew,
and .space are for more specialized areas of ham radio: discussions about
antennas, the older tube based amateur, military, and commercial gear,
commercially-made equipment, homebrewing, and amateur radio space
operations. The .equipment group is NOT the place for buying or selling
equipment; that's what rec.radio.swap is for.
But as far as I know -- this group is unmoderated.
Some Moderated news group can be found at yahoo, but folks complain about
"restricting freedom of Yaking"
So when it is free and the lawless have no fear -- you have the mess that we
have on the news groups.
IGNORE is the key word.
Still lots of good info here however.
Keep the faith.

Why is such stuff allowed to clog the forum?? Given that there are about
7000 items on the eBay site every one who has something available there
could conceivably also place a notice here. Does the moderator wait for
such
a nutty development or does that person take action now. This is getting
out
of control
