Review NaN of Summary: I ordered this FM antenna through the UHF Magazine web site in mid-December, 1998. The unit arrived a week later, but disappointment soon followed. On extending the rather cheap telescoping antenna, the end piece simply drew out and separated. Closer inspection revealed the other telescoping parts had been somehow impacted in, and were stuck. There also appeared to be design problems with the unit. The rather massive cable was coiled, and seemed likely to act a spring for the light weight plastic box and antennae. There would not be much extension or freedom of placement.
Given that the piece was defective, and not satisfactory on inspection, I mailed it back the same day, with an explanatory note asking for a refund. After a month with no reply (after all, they said they were at a Hi Fi show) I sent an e-mail offering to take goods of equal value in exchange. After a further month, I have still have no reply or acknowledgement whatsoever. I will give them credit for being prompt in the past replying to e-mails.
When we order by net or mail, we do so trusting that the mail order houses will not abuse their position. After all, which of us will be bothered to take legal legal action in a distant jurisdiction to recover $50.00?
One speaker, UHF, and no more orders.
