Strange trading DID happen
I consider it strange since the stock does not trade for days, or even weeks, and now the two times I put in a trade there follows a 'flurry of activity'.
Since my trade earlier, there has been another 20,000 shares. The bid ask is now at $0.12/$0.04. No idea why the bid keeps showing above the ask, but the ask did go higher, and there were trades below mine at $0.0193.

Shows strange $0.12/$0.02
I have no idea why, buy for some reason the stock is showing on the bid/ask as $0.12/$0.02 with 5,000/10,000 shares available.
I tried to sell at $0.12 but the system wouldn't let me enter the order, but I was able to buy a block of 10,000 at $0.02 with no problem.
Also unusual that the block on the ask was replaced with another block on the ask of 10,000 shares at $0.02.
I am waiting to see if there is a 'flurry of activity' in the shares for the remainder of the day just like the last time I bought.

Is someone painting the tape?
What IS going on?
Today, after getting an email with the latest financial statements, I put in an order for 1,000 shares at the ask, just to get some shares and be on the list for quarterly reports and such.
I figure, no big deal, and expect no other trading since it looks like the stock has not traded in days. My trade at $0.0808 is also a 52 week high for the stock. Prior to my order the bid/ask was 10,000/10,000 (market maker?) with the price $0.05/$0.09.
Now, for whatever reason, an additonal 62 shares trade and the price falls as low as $0.01, ending the day at $0.02/$0.04
no idea why my one small block set off a flurry of activity, or at least appears to have.

What is going on?
I came upon this company from a posting on seekingalpha.com about a book on unlisted stocks.
1: The company is still and in operation.
2: The state reports are current, but there was an interruption a few years ago when they let them lapse for a while.
3: The latest reports I can find so far are from 2004.
4: The stock appears to be still trading under this symbol.
I am trying to see about getting a recent set of financial statements.
I think the problem is that a majority of the shares are held by insiders and they appear to have nothing built up over the years;i.e. most of the earnings may have been paid out. If that is the case, with no dividend and no equity built up, the stock may have little value since buying the remaining shares would give one less than 50% of the votes and no control to change anything beyond how they are running now.
The insiders, if they were thinking a bit more, would make changes to give people a reason to buy the shares and then could sell off their shares for more than what ever they are getting out of the company now, and be taxed at a capital gains rate instead of income tax rates.

Had sales in Australia in 2010-2011
"Emerald TAFE
Emerald TAFE as like Rockhampton TAFE, have purchased quite a variety of Megatech Automotive Training Equipment to service the requirements of their student group who predominantly come from the various mines within the Emerald District. These Trainers service the Light to Heavy Vehicle Range and combine Brake, Propulsion and Electrical Systems Training."
"Barrier Reef Institute of TAFE (BRIT) located in Townsville has recently purchased identical Hampden Enginnering HVAC equipment to service the same needs as Rockhampton. In addition, the Automotive Dept has purchased a number of pieces of Megatech Automotive Trainers to support the Automotive Training they provide. Again, well done to the management and staff in both areas in selecting Hampden and Megatech trainers to assist with their training programs."
