In addition to the many accessories clearly described on the auction page, some items were not listed. This bidder contacted me early in the auction to tell me he wanted both Yaesu radios. As such, as an extra incentive, I offered him several additional items (software, computer cables, and cloning cables). I also notified each bidder of an included MFJ antenna not listed on the auction page. The total new purchase price of all items included with this one auction is in excess of $600. Between the two auctions, this bidder saved several hundred dollars over new prices. Dwight Stewart (W5NET) http://www.qsl.net/w5net/ |

I say he DOESN'T do THAT.

People often want to know why a piece of equipment is being sold, i.e., why don't you want it anymore? So you gave a reason. But Nooooooo! There has to be an _underlying_ reason!!! Hi, hi, hi.

Christ on a shiskabob stick, Steve!?!? --- he's sold his equipment and left the building. Who cares what his reason is? No one, Hans. I was just hoping I could irritate the be-jeebers out of you and elicit one of your always memorable retorts. It worked. Anything else to add...?!?! Steve, K4YZ |

Subject: FA: Last Day! - Yaesu VX-7R Handheld & Accessories From: (William) Date: 7/9/2004 7:58 AM Central Standard Time Message-id: (Brian Kelly) wrote in message .com... I'll be glad to help. Tell me about your real military experience again, oh serviceless one. Hi,hi! Before you start "laughing", Brain, at least Brian has acknowledged that which he has and hasn't done. You continue to misrepresent yourself. Aw go easy on him, he's just in his "grasp at any straw mode" again Steve. He was a USAF shipping/receiveing clerk for cripes sake. How far down the "service" chain is THAT?! But life demands that everybody needs at least one brag point in life and his "clerical service" is as close as he's gotten to having one. He sure as hell doesn't have any in ham radio or in any other field that I know about. So ya handle his predictable yelping from obscurity, which is typical of his types, with common good humor. A pat on the head, "Good boy, good BOY Putzlet!" "Now go fetch that box of file folders I need". The usual. Yawn And there is no law, rule or regulation that REQUIRES his having been in the service. Not since 1974. Steve, K4YZ w3rv |
