Save your money unless they can prove they have audio gain Jogunn cant back up anything else they say .... get a macco or moonraker for a lot less money.

I think they are very good, VERY strong/well built antennas, but the price is pretty high. And their marketing is unscrupulous. They should play up the construction/quality of their stuff, not make false claims about performance! It's insulting.

highlander the problem is they AIM the market at people who realy have little knolege and depend on NUMBERS printed on a spec sheet. SO they are willing to pay the money its frad plane and simple. I wish there were a standard all would have to meet .... fat chance.
