Hello John,
Indeed it is bad news and it gives a lot of problems. The deceit of
buyers by Deltron have to be published on internet in order to prevent
that more shortwave listeners and Hams become the victim of the
copying activities of Deltron and to find as many as possible buyers
who got an imitation instead of an original product. I hope that I can
find a way to replace all these copies by an original product. For me
this is at the moment more important than my sales. All the
correspondence and sales over my RF Systems website was handled by
Deltron. After I found out that they delivered imitation products if
it were RF Systems products, I have taken over the control of my
website. As clearly stated in the announcement, it is not longer
permitted to Deltron, to act as RF Systems, Hoogeveen or to sell RF
Systems products. As soon as possible after the session on court on 12
january, I will launch a new RF Systems website and webshop. Sales
will be handled by RF Systems and through some reliable dealers. It is
possible that some dealers (like Universal Radio in the USA) have RF
Systems products in stock, but as Deltron is not cooperating in giving
information to which dealers imitation products are delivered, I have
to find out first which dealers have only original products. You can
understand that I am extremely busy with the juridical proces against
Deltron as well as building-up a complete own sales organistation. If
some buyers want to order and they know what to order, they can send a
mail to the wellknown email adress This is also
valid for repairs. Unfortunately we can only deliver after 12 january.
I hope this has answered yor questions. I wish you and your family a
peaceful Chrismas and a happy New Year!. Kind regards, Willem Bos, RF
Systems

Hi Willem,
Sad news indeed, but please clarify for me:
1.] I take it that one should NOT buy RF Systems products from
DELTRON?

2.] You do not say WHERE buyers can purchase genuine RF Systems
products from in future? (and how since the website is down)


Despite all this I wish you a Merry Christmas and a good New Year

Dear John,
First of all I like to thank you for the nice testreports you put on
internet about the DX One MK 2. I hope your antennas are still working
well. It is some time ago we had contact, but I have important news.
For 23 years, Deltron trading was the exclusive distributor of my RF
Systems products. Deltron was sold to a new owner, Henk Brink, 3 years
ago. Now this has come to an end. I found first recently out, that
Deltron delivers copies of RF Systems antennas. All this is explained
in the attached announcement, but you can also go to the official RF
Systems website: www.rf-systems.nl This caused big problems for us,
because shortwave listeners and radio amateurs who have ordered a RF
Systems product got a bad copy. Deltron has to come for court on 12
january 2012. They are not willing to give me the names of the buyers
and dealers of fake RF Systems products. We hope that the judge will
force them to give the names, but in the mean time I am spreading this
news around, hoping that buyers of fake products will mail me, as i
want to ask the judge to compensate them.
I know that you are active on internet forums. Please be so kind to
give attention to this announcement. It will be of great help, not
only for me, but also for all the shortwave listeners who have got a
fake product without knowing it. Thanks in advance, good wishes for X-
Mas and new year from Willem Bos, RF Systems
