[QCWA] Mag Mount antennas

[Kevin Berlen]

Just to add a little balance...

I have been a user, seller, and installer of the NMO series mounts for 30 
years.
They are a very flexible, reliable, time proven mount. The brand I prefer is
Maxrad. Quality just as good if not superior to Larsen, and with a more
attractive price and apperance. Jsut my .02...73,
