There's nothing wrong with cross posting of messages that are on topic:
the designers of USENET intended it to be used in this way.

Of course, you could perhaps argue that this thread is only
superficially on topic in rec.radio.shortwave, since it's not about
brain dead political ideology, the real focus of the group. I suppose
you could make a similar objection to its presence in
rec.antiques.radio+phono since greed does not appear to motivate the
participants.

Personally, I find this thread interesting: envelope detectors are
fascinatingly subtle. How to make one that sounds good for real signals
remains poorly understood. To me it's more on topic than 95% of the
messages in these groups.
