And you prove what's bad about this newsgroup.

This isn't a buy and sell newsgroup. When it was created,
there was debate about whether ads should be allowed, and
even back then (1995 or maybe it was 1996, I forget now)
it was a hot point, because the Internet was still morphing
from it's traditional ways to the sadly more commercial
arrangement.

Finally, they decided ads would be allowed, but if you check
the charter, they come way down after discussion.

SO it's bad enough that too many treat this as a buy and
sell newsgroup for old radio equipment.

But you violate that further by using it as a general
buy and sell newsgroup. And if advertising old radios is
sort of borderline, it's quite clear that ads like this one
does not belong here.
