Felix once before posted the same stuff. After people got on him
for his commercial advertising via Amateur Radio Packet, he went
and modified his website. I guess now, he has had others onto to
him, and thus now he is calling it "DONATIONS". Sorry Mel, I went
to look and again he has changed it, and I wish I had the original
website postings there for you. I'd give you my email address
for that ....you can have it, anyhow... ve3wbz at hotmail.com

"Thank you" Mel. I am so glad you got your "donation" back
from Felix. Many have not! With him on Paypal now, it will
be a matter of time, until he gets bad reports going back to them
and as well other places, and he will be blackballed.
In a few days, Felix will post some screwed up message about
the complaints, and how he is so much the local ham at meetings
giving freely of his time..blah blah...and how he is being wronged
and looking for sympathy. The problem with FELIX, is that he
in no way represents many a local Ham giving of his/her time in the
local area. If they accept "donations" to help them, it is not
asked for but given freely by the giving person because they appreciate
the help they received. I have two hams I knew in this area, now
passed away that fit that bill. I guess you have too.
FELIX and his activities DO NOT, and will never come close to these
people and their efforts.

"Thank you" Didi for your efforts, to block this character
from making victims of people. I think you've read where one of
us got something back, but I wonder how many are not so lucky?
