I'd like to see this group be a useful place to discuss homebrew equipment, but your posts drown out any useful content that might happen. Can't you stick to your own moderated group? You have managed to kill it off with virtually no postings other than the blog echos you seem obsessed with. It appears you do not understand "moderated newsgroups"... When someone, e.g. KB6NU, posts a message to multiple newsgroups that include a moderated group, e.g.: Newsgroups: rec.radio.amateur.moderated,rec.radio.amateur.home brew the news posting software will recognize this and instead of posting it will mail the message to the moderator of the moderated group, who will then post the message in both groups. So, when you see a multiposted message in a moderated and non-moderated group, it will appear like it is being posted by the moderator, but in reality there is someone else who has originally submitted the message. In this case that may be KB6NU or someone else who likes to relay those blog messages to usenet, but the poster is not necessarily related to the moderator of the group. Incorrect on several counts. First of all, this is not a moderated newsgroup. Second of all, if you look at the headers, it is NOT KB6NU who is posting to the group - it is panix.com. And even if this were a moderated newsgroup, moderation does NOT change who the poster is. Otherwise all messages to a moderated newsgroup would have the moderator's id. And even postings to unmoderated newsgroups would have the moderator's id. This is proven false simply because rickman's posting also went to r.r.a.m, yet it has his info as the poster. And finally, panix.com is well-known for taking blog postings off the internet (not always with the poster's permission, which is a copyright violation) and posting them in multiple newsgroups. So it seems rickman is correct, and it is you who doesn't understand how usenet works. -- ================== Remove the "x" from my email address Jerry, AI0K ================== |
