TO THE TOWERTALK REFLECTOR
my grip with Create IS NOT their product quality...
that's exceptionally good..
my grip with Create IS NOT that they made
no offer to replace or repair mine...
their offer was commerically reasonable
My only concern is for other American hams
that also spent $1000. They too are now or someday might
be in my position to junk the system because CREATE did not
re-appoint another outlet to support future sales or provide
an after-sales service facility after EDCO failed.
PERIOD!!!!!!
That's the chance a manufacturer takes when they
appoint a exclusive distributor rather than make
the product line widely available.
There are probably many well established and respected
ham equipment outlets who under the the right conditions
would have picked them up. But now with no distributors
and no established repair facility with adaquate parts in this
large market they will have a difficult job to prove their credibility
when and if they ever again want to market in America.
This is exactly why I subscribe to this and other
reflectors. Its our responsibility to call it as it is.
CAVAET EMPTOR.
I apologize to the reflector for any misunderstanding.
