Look at RFS. Over time while I was at SAF they turned into my favorite antenna vendor.
When I was at SAF I sometimes worked directly with the antenna vendors as many of the ones SAF works with are headquartered in the US. Commscope, RFS, and Radiowaves all had different ideas about costs for shipping vs. costs for assembling onsite. If you save $50 on shipping and can pay a tower climber an hour to assemble it... it is worth it potentially in the big picture. photograph Daniel White Co-Founder & Managing Director of Operations phone: +1 (702) 470-2770 direct:+1 (702) 470-2766 > Caleb Knauer <mailto:cknauer.li...@gmail.com> > September 2, 2020 at 16:51 > Ok logo looks the same.
