I don't know anybody who's bought the satellite antennas, but I do know some
guys who've bought the recent HF antennas.
Quality control is typical MFJ, with parts missing, holes drilled wrong, poor

area at the Cape with only a 30 minute delay, but the most memorable was
actually from Clearwater on the other coast of Florida. I had just checked
into my hotel room for a business trip and turned on the television. As I
The first launch I got to see was from roughly 150 miles away in
Labelle, Florida, which is thirty miles east of Fort Myers. Was in my
senior year of high school and was watching on the TV and the teacher
said to go out and take a look. Some did and that was a sight to see

Yes, definitely worth it.
The first one I saw was in late September 1993 just south of New Smyrna
Beach. I was at the very south end of Canaveral National Seashore. The
