We have had a backup of orders lately, and at the same time California State Sales taxes were due, so we have been extra busy. All kits are caught up now, and we are working on clearing the backlog of assembled launchers on order. We are having some difficulty re-ordering barrel material, hopefully that will be resolved shortly. Since we are low on barrel material we have suspended shipment of separate barrels and are reserving the remaining stock for kits. Barrel material is hard to order but usually comes quickly once the order is placed.

No progress on Baluns at this time.

Thanks for your patience.

Field Day is nearly upon us. We are working through the order backlog, and preparing for our own Field Day trip. After Field Day we will be caught up and ready to take on new orders. (Field Day is June 24-25). We will be out of the office June 22-23 also, setting up camp in the Sierras for Field Day. For more information on Field Day see www.hsfdg.org

We still have work to do on the upgraded Triple Ratio Balun design, it may be a month or more before those are ready to go. The Switched model of the Triple Ratio Baluns are in stock over at www.Buddipole.com

Orders placed now will be started on beginning June 26th.

We have run out of Triple Ratio Baluns. We are working on an updated circuit board. It should be ready in the spring. If you are in the market for a TRB sooner then take a look at the Buddipole(tm) Triple Ratio Switch Balun. We designed that together with Budd and Chris, and it has essentially the same Balun as the TRB but with the added convenience of a rotary switch to select impedance ratios. See www.buddipole.com.

We’ve just about run out of Triple Ratio Balun kits. We have started to work on getting another set of parts, (more…)

News prior to 4/2/2006 will be collected here from the web pages it was on previously.
