[TowerTalk] Hy-Gain quality since MFJ took control?

[Jerry Keller]

The SteppIR concept and hardware have been working real good for some years, hardly a negative comment, lots of really good, satisfied owners... and growing rapidly. Solid, proven performance. The guys at SteppIR make a great product and provide great customer service... as a result they are loaded with orders.  Every wondrous technological development that has changed the face of history has had its detractors.  Barry...just think of all the things that have been going RIGHT....   73, Jerry K3BZ

  I wouldn't buy a Steppir.  Moving parts outdoors, out of reach, make 
  me nervous.  Just think how much more could go wrong.
