Boy are we lucky! Universal Radio is still around
 

The news today tells of an Al Quaida plut to blow up a shopping center in
suburban Columbus Ohio. They got the guy. Universal, athough not in a shopping
center (in fact it IS a shopping center for DXers), might have been damaged.

And their area was the locale for the freeway shooter last year who killed at
least one motorist.

And I bet Fred thought he'd be safe out there!

Oh Hell..
when you're numbers up, it's up.
Fly, drive, shop ( dive ! )
"live brave"
but live; I know someone who'se wandering around Israel; says its prefectly
safe
- Cheap too !

all the same,
thank god someone caught him / turned him in

Where did you hear this troubling information?

I'm glad they stopped the lunatic, but I have no love for Universal Radio.

They NEVER have anything in stock, and offer the WORST customer service in
the industry.

A Somali citizen held in immigration custody in Cincinnati, Ohio, has been
indicted in an alleged al Qaeda plot to bomb an Ohio shopping mall. (CNN)

I disagree----I have ordered several times from them and received
excellent service *every time.*

Strange, my experiences have been uniformaly different.
They know everything...oh maybe no individual, but they always transfer me to
some who does know the answers.

As to stock, on several occasions they were out of something weird, but told me
when it woud be in stock again. It always arrived at my front door before then.

Both major suppliers (Grove is the other) bend over backwards...you get the
feeling they're hobbyists too. Neither is very tolerant of being "jerked
around", but they go overboard to help novices in the hobby. Universal has a
much larger stock (get their print catalog and see).

RadioMan,

Imagine 100 'individual' Al Queda Terrorist (two for each state)
each acting independently as an Army-of-One on the same day; and
at the same hour UTC. They get into a car and drive to a small
town of 10-25K population. They go into a Elementary School with
several fire bombs and a pair of hand guns with extra bullets.
They kill a dozen or two children and set fire to the school.
The then Kill the Firemen and are Kill themselves by the Police.

The Terror of Children being Killed in every small town in America.
- The Message NO One Is Safe [.]

The Visual Image of Schools Burning Everywhere throughout America.

Change the Scenario to a Shopping Mails; Senior's Homes; Theaters;
High School Sporting Event; Church on Sunday Morning; ETC.

Wait a day or two and some of the usual suspects here will give us
chapter and verse from some loony web sites ("Capitol Hill Blue"!!) on
how this guy is really an innocent "student" framed by the vast and
despicable Bush war machine and its partner in crime Ashcroft. David?

BDK,

about: "Invasion USA"
Chuck Norris himself cowrote Invasion U.S.A., a movie that's partly a
right-wing paranoid fantasy and partly a prescient vision of
contemporary terrorism. A Soviet superagent named Rostov leads an
invasion of guerrilla squads who, after landing in Florida, spread
throughout the U.S. and start shooting bazookas into suburban homes,
inciting race riots by impersonating the police and attacking ethnic
events, and planting bombs in churches and on school buses. Soon
martial law descends as the country sinks into chaos. Only American
superagent Matt Hunter (Norris) can take Rostov on, and eventually the
two men face off, Rostov in full-body black leather, Hunter in black
gloves and painfully tight blue jeans. For anyone who yearns for the
simplicity of the cold war and enjoys a vengeance-laden action flick
with lots of guns and exploding cars (but little martial arts),
Invasion U.S.A. will provide some cinematic comfort food. -by Bret
Fetzer

The 'invasion' has already happen. At some point in time
the 'sleepers will awaken' and the Terror Will Begin . . .

They Are Here ~ RHF

While I am still trying to 'bucking' figure out
what you're trying to say, if Universal Radio
goes the way of so many other ham stores it
will be no loss. The only other people who's
prices are C Crane and Fair Radio. (two sucker
stores if there ever were one, these guys missed their
calling, they should have been selling used cars
with 'easy credit approvals' to schwartzies...)

hold on here a minute. universal is no where near the polaris mall. not even
close. if a bomb from polaris mall damaged universal radio, indiana,
kentucky, pa., and west va. would be in trouble,not to mention my longwire.
well maybe not all of them...but you get the picture.
