I guess I am not sure if eBay listing are approved on this list if they
are not then let me know and I will not post on this group again.

Being this is an antenna newsgroup and this is an antenna listing I
figured some people might be interested. I just listed a new old stock
KT34A on eBay. Please email me directly with your comments and question
so as not to overpost on this group.

Thanks

In general, if I remember correctly, Usenet rules prohibit using newgroups
for buying and selling.

Rules? On Usenet? Where did you ever get that idea?

Besides, there are hundreds of newsgroups specifically for buying & selling.

I guess I was thinking of the old Arpanet rules.

P.S. Sorry, my bad. A lot of things have changed since I started on the
Arpanet in 1967. I'm pretty sure the rules on the Arpanet prohibited using
newsgroups that way.

Yep, it was a lot different back then. Even when I got into it in the
80's. The signal-to-noise ratio was much higher. Only a handful of
newsgroups...no trolls...no spam...not even any www...sigh...
