A telephone call would not really be necessary here, would it?

As I very clearly detailed on another forum, I was very disappointed by the lack of communication, the delays in shipping and what I perceived to be less than satisfactory customer service after placing the order. That's no secret at all, I publicly published my opinions... you know, the ones you copied above like you had just discovered something really great. But once I finally received the antenna and put it up, I am extremely impressed with it's quality, performance and workmanship. It's by far the best omni GP I have used.

Your theory that I feel "taken to the cleaners" for paying around $375 is nothing short of ignorant speculation, much like everything else you have posted in this thread. If I felt the antenna was not worth the price or felt I had (in your juvenile terms) been "played for a sucker", I would have simply filed a claim with Paypal and the associated credit card to get my money back. That's what their buyer protection policies are designed for. (You'll understand how that works when you grow up.)

Furthermore, you state that I "got bent over without lubrication on shipping". Not surprisingly this is just more of your ignorant, baseless rambling that is easily disproven by anybody with even half a functioning brain: Case in point: Jay charges actual shipping and packaging costs. Look at the FedEx website and obtain a quote (if you can figure out how to do that at your apparent limited capacity). FedEx shipping on the antenna (14.5 lbs, 8" x 8" x 9' oversize freight) from Palmdale CA to Benton IL costs $32.35. The additional $5.00 that the shipper charges for boxing and other packaging materials is certainly not overpriced, in fact it's rather low if you look at the price of a heavy-duty 8" x 8" x 9' box.

No, some child's baseless opinion doesn't matter in the least. (If you are not really a child, then I offer my apologies. The spelling, grammar, reading and reading comprehension levels you have thus far demonstrated had me fooled into believing that you are a prepubescent schoolkid). I'm certainly not offended by anything you could have to say. If anything, I am amused. It's good practice to always consider the source - In this case, an obviously uneducated child who can't control his jealous rage over something as trivial as a CB antenna.

Your senseless ramblings have gone great lengths to prove my previous claim: The only people I've seen downplay the antenna's quality and performance are people like you who obviously can't afford one. Maybe someday you'll be able to afford quality equipment, I honestly wish you the best with that. Stay in school and say no to drugs.

I eagerly await your next outburst of ignorant, oral drivel. For the entertainment of the readers, please make it a good one.

I always thought a ham operator would build his own antennas, I do and I'm not a ham op.

I build my own amplifiers, antennas and repair radios without the need of a ham license.

And you're right, a callsign is certainly not a sign of intelligence. I personally detest ham operators who think it is.

I'm very happy to hear you build your own amplifiers and antennas... I used to, but now I can afford to buy mine.

And yes my opinion matters much, if it did not you would not feel so offended at being played for a sucker by the makers of the I10-k.

I read at a college level and not at an Illinois college level which compares to a 7th grade level in Mississippi so I know exactly what I post which is a direct copy and paste in the order it was posted on rednecks forum so you can stop right there with your spinning of the facts.

The fact of the matter is you are lying about the contacts and not the distance from where you claim they were made.

You come here and try to sugar coat the fact that you were taken to the cleaners for a simple antenna and got bent over without lubrication on shipping and they made you like it.
