Re: [Repeater-Builder]Large box houses!

Folks, I feel the same way. If you buy a Car from your local dealer do you have to call the factory to ask a question? Silly! Well it is the same thing. You buy an antenna or any thing from a dealer you should not have to call the factory to get an answer to a question. I am with Dean on this one. If I spend my hard earned money on a car or and antenna or even a repeater I darn sure better be able to get an answer to a question! This sell it and forget you is not good. I also buy some things from TESSCO, Hutton and Talley. All nice people and as long as I have no questions all goes well. But it is nice to know that some one can answer a question or two. Just my 25 cents worth <smile>. Very best of 73, Russ, W3CH Trustee, Metro-Comm, INC.

Hello All, Tessco is fine and I would not say a bad word but. I buy things from time to time myself from them. I work for a smaller warehouse (Family owned) and they send all of us to seminars and sometimes factory training sessions on all products we carry.  We do not employ order takers on the phone. Anyone here who answers the phone is an engineer! Yes people with a EE and or PE's (4 year degree) all with FCC GROL's. We are not the only company that does this and YES we can answer questions for people who call in and give them the right answer. We pride ourselves on this fact. There is a lot of smaller companies who provide this type of service and people just love the fact that they can call and ask a simple question and get a quick reply at no extra charge. Its called customer service. I hope we never lose it! We have lost enough in this great country without losing one more thing. Just my dimes worth on buying from a large box house.
