[TowerTalk] Why not to buy an M2 antenna

[john at kk9a.com]

I would not say that Telrex made a great antenna although you did get a
lot of aluminum for your money.  If you want to spend a lot for an antenna
there are $5,000+ models available from SteppIR, OptiBeam, SuperBertha,
etc.

why can’t we still have a Telrex or a Collins anymore?

Because most hams cannot (or will not) open up their pocketbook enough to
keep companies like them in business. FAR too many of us buy mostly on
price, then complain about the low quality of what we get.
