Wow,

It is a beautiful Antenna tuner. Looks like it could handle Amateur
Radio's legal limit and then some.

I just do not need such a device at this point.

Blame it on Ebay sellers tactics in the newsgroups. Flooding newsgroups
with their sales, crossposting all over the place, changing headers to
get around filters - FA has always been the suggested way to start an
ebay listing, which is easy to filter, but must have been too much
trouble for some.

Add to that that at least a few of us have been badly ripped off on
Ebay, I could leave negative feedback - yeah, there's a recourse.
hopefully it is understandable that some of us would rather keep auction
ads off a newsgroup that isn't about buying or selling things.

Those posts weren't from Ebayers tho'.

There's been a convention for years when folks want to spew their Ebay
merde on the newsgroups. Put FA as the first part of the subject. But
apparently many of them do not like that - after all not as many people
will see their ad then.

This was posted as for sale, not as FA - I wouldn't have even seen it
otherwise.

Rest assured, there are those of us who detest Ebay, and have enormous
issues with the ads showing up in newsgroups where they shouldn't be.

If I see the posts, I will reply. Cecil's crap in the mall was spot on.

Perhaps if the Ebay lowlife were to share some of their profits with us
it might not be so bad, eh Cecil?


.... naah it would be just as bad.

Oh dear! I re-read my post, and it doesn't sound at all right! I should
have wrote "Cecil's crap in the mall *example* was spot on".

What I did write brings forth disturbing visualizations. So sorry about
that Cecil.....

Well Mike, I just thought you had joined the guru
gang who assert their Big Lies about me here almost
every day. :-) e.g. that I support the concept of
"average power waves", which I do not. Here is a
quote from my 2005 Worldradio magazine article:

''The term "power flow" has been avoided in favor of
"energy flow". Power is a measure of that energy flow
per unit time through a plane. Likewise, the EM fields
in the waves do the interfering. Powers, treated as
scalars, are incapable of interference.''

Want to wager how long it will be before I am, once
again, unethically accused of supporting the concept
of "waves of average power"?

There you go again, Cecil, writing about waves of average
power when everyone knows they don't exist.

:-) I know they don't exist. W7EL knows that I know they
don't exist. Now if you can only get W7EL to stop falsely
accusing me of supporting the concept of "EM power waves"
you will have accomplished more than I have been able to
accomplish during the 21st century. If W7EL had not first
falsely written about me believing in "waves of average power",
I would not have to utter those words in defending myself.

I have not supported that concept since long before the
beginning of the 21st century. Jim Kelley convinced me
long ago that "power in an EM wave" is not a valid concept,
that the valid concept is "energy associated with an EM
wave". The energy is moving. The power is that energy
passing a fixed measurement point.

W7EL uses his considerable political power to try to
discredit people like me. One wonders why he chooses that
path instead of simply mounting a winning technical argument.
One wonders why he is unwilling to defend his use of
standing-wave current to try to measure the delay through
a loading coil.

Oh heavens no! I only know enough about antennas and their nuances to get
myself in trouble. I'm too ignorant to have a dog in this fight.

Well, as long as no one pokes an eye out, I guess that boys will be boys.

And my guess is 1 post.. ;^)
