WA4WIP Dick - Good guy alert

Post by VE3GOP »

Hi all...

Ever since I got stung by John Pringle VE7JZ / VE7NVI (if that's what his name is) I've decided that I will post an alert on this site, good or bad, when it comes to my dealings with hams.
As such, I'd like to announce a good guy alert by the name of Dick WA4WIP. I left him a quick email a few weeks back asking whether he had any Kenwood TS440 auto tuners available for sale. He replied saying that he doesn't have any at the moment but will get back to me when he comes accross one. With the amounts of emails people receive each day, it is very easy to forget to get back to someone on a certain subject and I assumed Dick would too. That wasn't the case, a couple a weeks later I see an email from Dick - he's got one for sale and will let it go for a reasonable price which included shipping to Canada.
Satisfied with his asking price I sent him a money order and within a week and a half I had a Kenwood TS440 Auto tuner in my hands. I installed it in the rig and it worked (still does) flawlessly.

Many thanks Dick!
