Re: Thanks 821
Today I just read this thread and first let me say that
I invited Greg here, and that he indeed is a fine Gentleman.
Its obvious to me that this post by the foot777 who cant
speak in the language that we all were taught in school
was a put up deal to intimidate and aggravate someone who
has good intentions, and Is allowed to mention his place of
business and the quality of work he preforms.
I have in fact had my radio done up by him and am very well
satisfied that I got what I paid for. I wonder how many of
you are aware that there are three different tubes available for
this radio, and how many are wondering how come you only
are getting 50 watts out of it at 11 Meters and so on and on
as to the little things.
Did you receive a full alignment and cleaning of bandswitches
and other needed modifications.
Mine is doing 195 pep Bird watts and puts out same power
on 10 meters as on 40 meters.You get what you pay for as we
all know, and should know there are not any free lunches.
Greg nor Docs, give their work away and shouldn't be expect
to do that..
BTW, some seem to think this is Their Forum and I beg to
disagree. How much in dollars have you contributed to it ??
As for another tech. that doesn't charge as much for his work I see no relation in that at all.
This other tech. will not even disclose what he does
for the money that you spend, other than to say he will make
it do its thing.
That said, I talk to Docs every day on the chat room and I
respect that the way he does it. Send me your money and you will like it.
I bet if he posted that here that some flack would arise from
that no doubt, and that the reason he is probley smart enough not to do any posting on this forum.....
I have been known to butcher a few radios in the learning
process myself, HOWEVER I have a hell of lot more respect
for the Old,Fine,Radios like the now hard to find and get in
excellent condition radios, like the Kenwood TS 830 @ TS 530 as well as others like the FT 101 and FT 102 radios.
Those of you that let your tech. like Docs work on your 2510 and SHIP your radios to him and pay him a price for his
work that he has determined to be fair, should not speak out
at another for what he has determined to be fair for his work.
I think its a Damn Shame that Greg let himself get suckered
into this crap, but that his mistake and he has to live with it..
FYI, Docs will be looking at my HR 2510 and for those that
may now have or are considering a Kenwood and I hope that
only the few that truly respect these Fine Radios will send
them to Greg and not butcher them up....
A person who is really passionate and loves what he does
will take exception to those that minimize the value of his
labor and love of what he does...
THINK about IT.......
