I've been reading all the reviews i can find and the one common element is quality in the past 10 years has dropped substantially. People are saying they had a 1990's built rotator in the air for 20+ years without a problem until they bought a newer unit built after 2010 and cant get them to...
Talked to Hy Gain yesterday and their rotator division isnt doing well. Between covid wiping out several of their parts manufacturers and the continuing supply chain issues they are 4+ months out from resuming any new production. No new rotators/controllers until mid June at the earliest and...
Dead horse? Lol sorry if you dont like the thread.
No phone
No email teply
Maps says permanently closed yet im supposed to believe they're still open? Did you fall and bump your head. If you dont like the thread you know what to do.
Im not believing that. Pretty sure thats
an auto message that is automatically updated daily by a computer.
No email reply, disconnected phone and maps saying its "Permanently Closed" is enough for me.
Well be careful is all i can say and glad you got your stuff.
All i ever got from Norms was a bad attitude. I thought maybe id give them another chance after 2 years since my last bad experience but with no email reply, maps showing its permanently closed, the phone listed being disconnected...
Well, 2+ years later and round 2 with norms. Sent an email almost a week ago with no reply. That place makes it hard to spend a couple $K's
Took me a few as i guess i deleted some old emails and didn't remember this thread until i did a little searching.
Looks like ill take my business to DX...
Posting here also in case some folks dont look at the hambone buy/sell forum.
Looking for a T2X Rotor. If you have one that needs a new home please let me know.
I like wegawatt supplies for running radios and accessories like fans but they dont hold up well running in parallel or running amps. Ive had one for 3 years that runs my 955 and a few fans and i love it.
Last time i shipped my 955 for a mod it was $32 from Florida to Georgia usps priority, another $32 back and that was over 2 years ago. Gotta be near $40 now
Why is my keister sore?
Apples and oranges. We're not driving 1000 packages at once so the cost comparison isnt valid imo.
The problem for me comes when shipping prices inflate when fuel prices rise but never deflate when fuel prices drop. Seems to me shipping companies are screwing the consumer.
I know it's a little old but ive seen where usps is now charging extra for boxes over certain sizes. I do all i can to avoid shipping anything large.
Parcels that are longer than 22 inches but less than 30 inches will see a $4.00 surcharge.
Parcels that exceed 30 inches in length will incur a...
Unfortunately like everything else quality potentiometers have disappeared and whats left of the old quality parts are expensive if they're even available. Shit an arco 425 is $30 if you can find one.
Ive talked to countless old school amp techs and they all say the same thing, once the parts...
Yeah i looked but it appears to be the same design.
So i found an N x so239 adapter and by pushing the center pin on the N side the entire inside slides right out. I have a little more modifying to do but i should have it done tonight.
Well im tired of noise from all 4 corners all at once and dug out a sy4 set i bought used several years ago. Time to put the ground plane away for a while.
After stripping it down for cleaning and what not i noticed the so239 gamma stud came apart quite nicely. My issue is the so239 insulator...
I appreciate you helping me out. At that time you didn't have to take on more work but you did and i was glad to help you in return.
I was impressed with Dirtys wifi 1600, that amp was nice. Unfortunately i dont know where it is but i could probably find out. 521 had an extensive collection of...
