>> Hi Gang,
>> Some of you thought KLM products were the way to go. KLM is now gone.
>> Some of you thought HyGain was where it was at. HyGain is no more. Some
>> of you think Mosley sucks. But Mosley is still around! Some of you think
>> Cushcraft sucks, and has lousey and "arrogant" customer service, but
>> they're
>> still around. Cushcraft/Signals has a commercial side to their nature.
>> And
>> Mosley manufacturers antennas for commercial/military/government use.
>> Amateur radio just can't support most manufacturers, alone. Next time
>> you're
>> shopping for an amateur radio related item, and feel like squeezing every
>> vendor
>> in creation for every last cent of his profit, think about that.
