I might be wrong about that - but those red handles just caught my eye immediately.<br /><br />72 de Larry W2LJQRP - When you care to send the very least!https://www.blogger.com/profile/08707602309223956112noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12559579.post-2700542633215298912019-09-19T07:14:49.297-04:002019-09-19T07:14:49.297-04:00Sadly, the online platform in question is packed f...Sadly, the online platform in question is packed full of such counterfeits, and one has to be additionally careful not to be sucked-in by flags proclaiming 'US-based', or 'UK-based seller', when scrolling to the seller details reveals it's actually a Chinese seller.

The China knock off's are not even close to the real deal and I hope most people have caught onto this and don't toss their money down the drain. <br />73, <br />Mike <br />VE9KKVE9KK https://www.blogger.com/profile/04720839744779758420noreply@blogger.com
