    Dude that sucks. The mic I picked up for you should be getting there soon. I thought I heard you on the radio one evening this week. When I tried to call back I didn't get any answer so I don't know if it was you or who.

    Good Luck

    I wasn't sure it was you. But thought it might be. With my weak little setup I doubt you'll ever hear me but we'll keep trying.
    Ebay can go either way. Seems like once you get bit once it turns into a run for a while. Plus people may try to get over since your in a different country and don't have a lot or recourse.

    Good luck and take care

    It's not just you. My last three or four purchases from FLEABAY were CRAP! In the ad they swear it is a functioning unit. It gets here and I plug it in to test it and there is nothing at all that could have functioned. Signal generators missing tubes, Spectrum analyzers that smoke, and a CB with blown circuit boards.
    All answers are opinions and may, or may not be technically correct.

    These type of antenna's are tricky to tune and get working correct. In my opinion, once mastered the Wilson and Sirio type antenna's then take the step up to the big boy antenna's. Bet it works great but have to know the tricks to getting working properly and it's normal to take a while to get these type of antenna's in mail, because they are hand made to order, not like the Wilson who builds tons of those ahead of time and ready to ship once they get the order.
