forum to be especially helpful. I bought a Sigma 40XK and accepted the wait period, was patient and the antenna was worth the wait. Then I needed a Sigma 5 GT right before the S05X dx-pedition (after my MA5B became useless) and lucked out and found one used on eHam. I just couldn't wait for the factory. I was able to break the big pileups and work S05X on 20M CW and SSB - and really like it better than my MA5B. Anyway - a tale of 2 Sigma's - sure, I would LOVE to walk into an HRO and just pick a Force-12 antenna up, but I am sure it takes time to grow a business up to that level, especially since the Ham radio market is such a niche market . . . I hope demand stays high enough so that Force-12 can get to that level - especially since other ham radio antenna manufacturers have been downsizing their line or have been bought and sold a few times. 73, Rich KY6R ----- Original Message ----- From: "Joe T Milam" <w5ua@juno.com> To: <Force12Talk@qth.com> Sent: Thursday, June 26, 2003 17:07 Subject: [Force 12 Talk] Re: Does Force 12 have problems? > Reference Force 12 and delivery issues. > Hi Mike. > > I spoke with Tom at HamCom in Dallas this past weekend.
