Well... I've always been a big fan of Hutton/Electrocom, and they do sell them, and have a great price on the feeds. Stocking of DP products is a different story. Unfortunteately, the majority of the time, when I need them , usually the last minute :-), the parts I need are usually "check for availabilty". :-( That makes it hard to place an order at 8pm online, when I finally get time, and get a sense of whether the product will arrive on time for my need. So I was just looking for additional options. I was also wondering if Pac's model is now just for vendors to have Pac just Drop ship, and vendors generally not planning on stocking, which would also be OK. On an ongoing basis, I just don't want to have to wait for a product to be shipped to the distributor, and then from distributor to me, as that duplicates shipping costs and/or slows delivery so the distributor can coordinate lower cost bulk shipping methods to get it to them first. Its worse when I'm east coast, and distributor is west coast. I believe in distribution, when distributors are willing to stock the merchandise regularly. But in the past, very few vendors have been willing to stock DP products. I'm concerned on what availabilty will be in the future also. For small radios, and stuff, the arguement is always.... The WISP should buy larger quantities and stiock more inventory. But Parabolics are large antennas, and take up a lot of space, so generally don't like to stock a lot of them in our "office" environment. I'd rather overnight a feed, or buy the full dish more locally.
Now that Pac is refusing to fill orders direct, for these little things, I hope distributors will pick up the slack, so we don't have to wait 2 weeks, everytime we want a DP antenna.
