It sure sounds like someone lit a fire under his tampon.

i get the impression someone put a powderkeg too close to sparky.

Seriously though,from what I read the guy is one of the better techs in the USA,seems to go a bit extra for the customer,and tries to keep his prices reasonable.

Its so easy for some numb nut who knows nothing about radios or who f@cks his radio up then denies it then slags off those who do know something about radios or who fix it for you,or slag them off because they made one or two small errors in amongst hundreds of radios,people are human including techs and humans make mistakes,seems a shame that one halfwit has spoiled things for loads of satisfied customers.

He also has a point about the tram antenna,who gives a f@ck where its made as long as it works well and is competitively priced,if people were so loyal to american cb brands there would be very few radios in the states these days or in europe for that matter,as most of the companies priced themselves right out of existence.

Bottom line is if your the type of person who goes about forums slagging off techs and shop owners who try to make a living from your hobby and your hobby dies because of it,you only have one person too blame.

Here's what angela c has to say.lol

I see someone is really doing a remarkable job getting rid of the scum on this board. JJD and Sandman don't stand a chance against the mighty moderator. Good job! Let's really keep it clean okay. When I log on, I only want to read clean, productive, wholesome literature.Angela

If this guy thinks making customers happy while selling radio gear is hard, he should spend a few months in a business where people are spending a lot more money as your customer and instead of complaining on a forum, they do it with an attorney. After he gets a few multi-million dollar trivial lawsuits from a few customers he'll be happy to go back to trivial forum nonsense.

BTW, I'm not saying that I don't see where he's coming from. I tend to agree with Jazzsinger's point of view.

However, making posts like that as the owner of the business is going to do more harm than good.

moleculo is correct

I've re-read a few things and it seems that Sparky may have been in the wrong in sending out free equipment in exchange for a review of the equipment. Nothing wrong with that but new laws have passed stating that blog/forum type posters must openly state that they received the item for free/reduced cost in exchange for their review.

Just a thought.

In my opinion Sparky got caught using a "review" to advertise some new products when it wasn't a review by an actual customer that had purchased the items.

Drug companies do this all the time.
