Hi all, just my .02 cents here.
I have been reading these ham radio groups for many years now.
Every now and then somebody goes into a tizzy about somebody used
FS instead of FA. Then the thread goes on forever because the Tissy guy
is really nasty about it using a lot of potty mouth. Some simply say,
use FA, not FS. I think that is OK. Even though items are for sale
at auction. I always use the FA: when I list my auctions. And I only
post it every couple of days and the last day of the auction. On many
systems the original posting drops off within a day or so while some
systems show postings forever. I however do not list every day, this
can be annoying to the reader. HOWEVER, people who absolutely don't
want to even see any FA's should use a filter so they don't see them.
This would solve a lot of distress on the groups. I thank these groups
for the use. Many, or most guys that read stuff here DO look at the
auctions. The ebay counter proves this. You get a feel of how many
hits you have in a given time. When posting on some of the groups
the count goes up a lot in a few hours.
Anyway, thanks again for reading my .02 cents!
73, and remember, it is only a hobby.

Hey internet police...does it really matter whether a person uses FS or FA?
I mean, on auction sites, people are either BUYING or SELLING stuff. It
appears to me that this guy is SELLING a scanner, so FS is just fine.

It's FA not FS
