I really don’t get it but maybe someone here with more knowledge than I have 
can explain this to me. For about the last month and a half or so I have been 
trying to get the information that I wanted to order a 2 meter and a 6 meter 
legal limit amplifier and I have been greatly surprised.

One company that I contacted took a moth to get back in contact with me to even 
give me a price on the amps, the other company that I tried I asked for some 
pictures of the amps since the web site for the company didn’t have pictures 
that were very good. The first pictures that I was sent were literally 
component level pictures not of the whole amp. When I asked for pictures of the 
whole amp I got pictures of a barbecue, a dog, a child, and what I think is the 
companies owner. I was very very surprised by this because when I spoke to the 
owner on the telephone he seemed to be extremely nice and willing to help. This 
experience really has me wishing for the days of Henry radio, I don’t think 
this would have ever happened with them. 

Can anyone shed some light on this or recommend a company that they know has 
given good service? I am ready to order the amps now, I realize that 2 amps 
won’t make or break a company but I can guarantee that the word of mouth that I 
will spread will certainly reflect my experiences and it has always seemed that 
has rely on other hams experiences pretty heavily.

Thank you for your input.
