Tram-Browning Company Going Downhill?

[DTB Radio]

Has anyone else started having issues with Tram-Browning's support and general attitude towards product and customer support? I'm not ready to post any details yet as I'm hoping the situation can be resolved, but I'm very close to discontinuing all Tram-Browning products as a result of what's been happening. Anyone else getting some bad vibes from them lately?

Update from Tram-Browning. In an email dated today, they say that they changed their accounts to pre-pay before shipping. Pretty much guarantees I won't be restocking any Tram-Browning products, at least not directly from them.

I had bad vibes from them a long time ago. I told them how I felt about their shitty attitudes and they started crank calling me. I bought a bunch of shitty antennas from them, that didn't last a year. This was about 5-6 years ago. I didn't buy more after that.

Just a Chinese shell company

Didn't they get bought out by some junk electronics company that sells cut rate Chinese dollar store items?
Not road pro but something like it.

I would be amazed if the current Tram-Browning company has any connection at all to either the original Tram or Browning companies! Much more likely is that the Tram-Browning brand came up for sale and some overseas company, from China or Korea or wherever, is leveraging the reputation of the name to sell crap product.

They were always selling cut rate Chinese dollar store items. Everything they sold was a lousy copy of something better.

Really? The names were stolen, like all of the antenna designs they made. Same as all of the defunct tube company names.
