My experience with F12 and N6BT goes back 19 years so far. I have 3 of
his smaller antennas - two C3Es and anEF-240S. All are working and
holding up well. My technical experience was mixed - my impression is
that Tom very much wanted to do things right and be fair to his
customers, but that execution got in the way, with missing parts,
misdrilled boom pieces, and the like. I think he need a good QC guy as
his manufacturing foreman. However, I have no doubt Tom himself means
well, and maybe he learned something from it.

Lousy manuals…. no parts list, confusing instructions and measurements for the EF-130..30M dipole in the instruction manuals. I would at least look at the manual for the antenna that you are interested in before buying. He sold the business to a K5 that tried to get things organized but after a few years he sold what was left of the business to Innova Antennas. They have kept some of the popular items but eliminated most!!
