Re: ***WARNING**** DISHONEST SELLER K4IDC/KB4IDC :[TowerTalk] LargeMast For Sale...last one

[Bert Rollen <k4ar@arrl.net>]

I have known Robin & used his products ever since he started welding, in 
fact I have several of his prototype which were custom jobs at my request, 
including a marvelous tower trailer job. All total he has produced several 
dozen items for me, and all have been high quality.

There is no doubt that he is an accomplished welder,an absolute gentleman, 
and has every reason to take pride in his work.  While there is no doubt 
that the person complaining is upset, it is simply a anomaly, and not at 
all routine.  Robin does not operate that way, and I do recall reading of 
his attempts to rectify the situation.  Some persons simply cannot be 
satisfied short of an attempt to ruin a otherwise solid reputation.

Those of us who really know him will certainly keep him as busy as he wishes.

Warmest regards,

Bert Rollen - K4AR
