Hi Bob,

Usually what eBay sellers do is provide a URL reference *link*
to my site; rather than a full *copy* of all the text and images
into their eBay item description.

It's not that big a problem, really. I don't "copyright" web pages
or email postings and couldn't enforce it worldwide even if I did.

What we want to prevent is an eBay seller giving the impression
that the particular item being sold somehow exactly matches the
plots included in the item description or that the overseas item
being offered for sale has somehow been personally tested by me.

You've done a good job supplying low cost surplus gear to the
amateur community. You'll often find that the more honest you
are with the eBay item description the greater the trust gained.

Showing the actual results of your LPRO tests is one thing; but
showing the results of my tests as if they were one your tests
maybe crosses the line.

While we're on this subject, just where do all these surplus LPRO
rubidium oscillators come from? If they are old cell towers, what
timing equipment is replacing them?

Thanks,
/tvb
