No I don't have an interest in the place, I just ran across these and
am going to purchase one my self.



As someone who now has one of these antennas laying in a heap in his
yard, if you're in an area prone to high winds, I'd think twice. The
antenna was a fine functioning one, but upon an evening of 45-60mph wind
gusts, and a year in the air, it crumpled. From looking at it, I'd say
their cost savings comes from a cheaper fiberglass tubing on the
exterior.

Hello John,

The one you bought back on 05/06/02 is not one of the current models
that we are selling. Sometime back when it was brought to our attention
that the former models of these antennas had wind survivability problems
we changed manufactures. The new manufacture is providing much heavier
duty units that do not exhibit the same problem.

The former models came from he

http://www.ningbo-export.com/prosound

The current models are coming from he

http://www.greaterland.com

If you'll gather up the pieces of the damaged one from the heap and
send them back to us along with a copy of your sales receipt we will see
if we can get it replaced for you.

For the record, http://www.greaterland.com is not a "Chicom"
product, as you indicate. It is a company in Taiwan, a Democratically

Understood, but I have similar feelings as this "Troll" does. Just
wanted to make the facts clear in that the one Amateur product supplier
mentioned was not in Communist China. I try to buy my amateur radio gear
made in USA but it is tough to compete prices with the great stuff from
the East.

The borders are open, you could always go there for good.

Tim, I'll do just that over the next week or so.
I just failed last week, figured 'buyer beware' and It was tough bananas
for me. I'd be elated if something could come of it. For the record, the
mounting portion, ground plane, and bottom of the center element are
still in the mount, and it works wonderfully recieving uhf..lol But upon
inspecting what lay in the yard, it looked like little more than a
glorified cardboard tube. Glad to hear you've improved the product,
and you'll be hearing from me before the new year.
