Excellent Quality Time Owned: 0 to 3 months.
This call sign light up sign is much nicer then in the pictures. I am very impressed. I was thinking of getting a neon call sign but this is much nicer. Excellent build quality. It's very pretty. Jim is a very nice guy to work with. 73

Fabulous Time Owned: 3 to 6 months.
I have purchased two items from Jim. He answered all my questions and really worked with me. The first item I purchased was a mirrored call sign, world map and then my name alongside a Amperex 4-400 tube. Both the mirrored call sign and tube are illuminated through a remote control switch which can do anything. A regular light show if you desire.

After being so satisfied I sent Jim a "cookie jar tube" the 833A. He put this on a mahogony base and the tube is next to a clock. Of course the tube is illuminated by remote.

This is what I sent to Jim after receiving it.

"Jim,

I just received your artwork a little while ago. It is absolutely gorgeous. The picture did not do it justice. The clock height turned out to be perfect next to the 833A. I was initially concerned that the LEDs would not light up the tube because of its size. It does a great job. I could not be more pleased with this. Every time I look at it I'm in disbelief. Thank you very much for all your time a patience on this project. I will be leaving an e-ham review on this and also the mirror call sign that you made for me.

I could not be more pleased.

73s"

Hard to say anything more. You will not be dissapointed.

Very Nice Workmanship Time Owned: more than 12 months.
I have acquired other goods from Jim's Engraving since my previous review, and the workanship and quality is excellent. The etched glassware is well done, and looks good. His lighted call signs are especially nice. Jim obviously cares about what he makes. If you are fortunately to have Gordon West hawking your stuff, it must be good.

I am totally pleased and satisfied with the several mugs I have purchased from Jim KF4NBG. I have one with the Ten-Tec logo sitting by the rig. Way cool.

I purchased several mugs as tokens of esteem and as a thank-you for local Elmers who have helped me understand electronics and plan my station. Their wives tell me the mugs get used A LOT, and not just down in the shack.

I now have a pair of little espresso cups with my call sign etched in them and THOSE are great fun to use, and make a unique gift or conversation piece in the shack. (I am an espresso junkie... stop by my shack and I will extract a shot just for you...)

These mugs are an ESSENTIAL SHACK ACCESSORY - way more useful than a linear amp or DSP audio filter or . . .

Wonderful Even for Custom Art Time Owned: 0 to 3 months.
I first discovered Jim's product from the Ham Nation podcast. I sent Jim a custom vector graphic of a logo I specifically designed Adobe Illustrator. My logo had fine details of a map of the Earth that was etched in fine detail preserving even the smallest of islands while the curves showed perfect geometry and crisp clarity. Jim was able to etch this design into glass exactly the way I designed it.

It's cool to have this glow and change colors. My remote control can change the color or keep it at just one color.

Fantastic Product Time Owned: 0 to 3 months.
I saw the product announcement in QST for Engraved Memories Lighted Signs and surfed the associated web pages. The product reviews were too good to ignore so I emailed Engraved Memories for a few sample photos.

I quickly decided on a pleasing design and within 3 weeks the Lighted (call) Sign was proudly on display in my shack. I opted for the multi-color version and it is well worth the extra cost.

This is a beautiful piece of work and really stands out. Anyone interested in a quality callsign plaque should really consider what ideas Engraved Memories can offer.

Outstanding Job, Just Awesome Time Owned: 0 to 3 months.
Mine was a custom order because I wanted Orange led's and the script to match what Yaesu (new times roman)uses. I did everything via email, the first email to Jim was returned within an hour, and I believe I sent the email on the weekend. He told me the turn around is about 3 weeks, I got mine in about 2 weeks, I opened the package (very well packaged by the way) and my mouth just dropped, I was so amazed. He did an outstanding job with this order and I highly recommend doing business with him. Thanks Jim...
