Great experience with rigid 6 meter dipole Time Owned: 0 to 3 months.
I had a need for a rigid 6 meter dipole for temporary use. I discovered that Craig, K1CRA had his HAMinator series of single band dipoles available on his website. At only $45 it consists of a bright steel center mount with receptacles for two screw-in ProComm hamsticks. There is a machined connector that accepts a PL259 plug, a machined clamp to enable mounting to a mast and 4 screws and nuts.

A hamstick is a semi rigid fiberglass rod with a machined end that screws into the dipole center mount. The other end of each hamstick has a machined end piece with two set screws and a short stainless steel whip. During deployment you can adjust the length of the whips to resonate at your desired center frequency by loosening the set screws, pulling or pushing the whip into the hamstick and re-tightening the set screws.

I had no prior experience with hamsticks and had e-mail correspondence with Craig to determine if this product would meet my needs. Craig promptly replied and once ordered, shipped the antenna within one day. It arrived perfectly packaged and protected.

I am going to use the antenna in my HOA restricted home for weekend use during the few annual VHF contests. I will be mounting it at about 20 foot height on a Spiderbeam fiberglass push-up mast.

Perfect working with Craig! Time Owned: 0 to 3 months.
Ordered a 100 foot rotator cable for my Yaesu G-450A rotator. Craig said that Jetstream was out of stock on the completed cable with both connectors. So, he got the cable and put the connectors on, just so that he could get the cable to me as fast a possible. And it was fast!

Very nice to talk to and very accommodating. Wanted to be sure to serve his customer. Thanks so much Craig and I hope to do business with you again!

Good shiping, well packed Time Owned: 0 to 3 months.
While I have not used the four Jetstream HF antennas I ordered yet, the K1CRA Radio Store shipped them promptly and very well packed. I hope the antennas perform as well as K1CRA

K1CRA Radio Store has excellent prices and quick shipping. I used them recently for the first time; it definitely will not be the last.
