Simple answer.

The NewsGroups: header line contain a comma separated list of all the
newsgroups to cross post to.  When editing your post, just change this line.

As an example, I changed the newsgroup line of your message to:

        Newsgroups: news.newusers.questions,misc.test

to cross post to 'misc.test'.  Hopefully, *IF* anyone reads that group, they
won't be offended :-)
