I think much of their stuff is overpriced, but the quality is good.
If I could only find an alternate source of their saddle clamps. Those
things are truly excellent.

I'm pretty much of the same mind as K9YC. The DXE stuff I've considered
seems expensive compared to other sources, and the things I've looked at
up close at Dayton haven't thrilled me. For example, their active whip
antennas can't hold a candle to Clifton Labs for build qualityor
features, and Clifton's even include schematics with them.
