Has anyone lately been having quality issues with the Sinclair base station/coliinear antennas over the past 5 or 6 years? Ever since they abandoned their US mfg operations and moved their factory to Mexico... changed their model numbers (for supposedly the same product)(dumb move in my opinion)seems we have noticed some negative changes in general quality. Internal harnesses have become intermittant, swaged fittings come loose... all causing considerable IMD/desense and general grief for commercial and amateur operators alike. When you have repeater antennas on windblown icy mountaintops that are basically inaccessable for repairs for 6 months of the year, you cannot have this kind of thing happen...
Anyone have experiences over the past few years? Particularly the 4 bay open dipole collinear variety of which we almost exclusivly use. Richard VA7AA Yahoo!
