Aren't people that are capable of modifying the feed also capable of
obtaining a free conifer or pac mono antenna.

The TIB seriously needs to be monitored.

My solution is leave it the way it is now. But have like the tick of
approval for sellers and what they are selling. Waveguides were listed not
long ago and they made no mention they were the down pipe version. New users
might purchase these antenna's thinking they are receiving a CNC version or
something.

At least this way people will know if they are getting a good deal or not.
The whole point is to get as many nodes as we can up. If people get caught
forking out aditional funds of the same product then it's going to have a
direct effect on what MW is trying to achieve.

The deals should also benefit members and not just people looking to make a
quick buck. If the product is => to RRP then it shouldn't be listed. Paying
retail for bulk buys isn't really Incredible now is it.
