SALES WARNING: "NorthStar CB's"
Dave or Debby
People:
DO NOT BUY Northstar 10 meter or CB Radios. The reasons
are this: They are made in RED China & will have MORE problems that the
Galaxy/Connex comporable Radios that are NOT made by forced slave
labor. ANY CB's or Car Stereos or ANYother electronics that is made in
China IS CHEAPENED UP & won't last as long & you will have more problems
with them then NON-China made units. Plus you pay the same price to
have MORE headaches with this commie trash! So do you want to support
COMMUNIST murderers & get a less than should be quality radio, or do you
want to get a better quality radio & NOT support the REDS? Avoid China
like AIDS! Dave!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Something does'nt sound right here. I've been selling all of the
export radio lines for almost 8 - years and the only radios that I can
say thats been trouble free are the northstars. I have had one
nortstar 440 come back, and it was in the 90 - day warranty that
I give to all customers wheather it was a galaxy, connex, superstar
northstar or whatever. Instead of fixing the radio for this man, I gave him a
new one, sent the other back and it was exchanged with no questions asked, (
thats product support ). Sounds like
someone does'nt like China any more than I do, but the labor rates
overseas are much less than our American labor rates, so in order
for these radios to be made they come from overseas and many of
the export radios and not just northstar are made in China.

The reality is that the labor portion of the construction is usually less
important than the quality of the subcomponents. A great radio will have
high-grade (mil spec grade?) components with rated MTBF (mean time between
failure) of greater than 8 years. Cheap components can have MTBF's of less than
18 months. In the computer industry it is one of the main factors that make
some computers much better than others (HP, Apple, Sun better than PacBell,
Acer, Franklin for example). Yes, crappy labor can cause bad solder
connections, etc, but most things are built by robots anyway -- when is the
last time you saw a commercial electronic appliance that was hand soldered
other than a few leads? That's why they use wave machines (a machine designed
to solder the entirety of a board at once by floating a curcuit board across a
pool of solder).

Dave,
I've owned a Northstar DX 880HL for the past 18 months. It is a
little finicky for mobile use, however, I have been using it as a base
station & it sure carries the mail.

i love my northstar dx990-v
i wondered why the meter lit RED on transmit...its 2 years old and still
rockin the neighborhood!!!
besides we've got conditions like that here...do you make sure your fruit
and veggies aren't picked by illegal immigrant workers?if you say yes i know
its not true ,so no answer is needed.
besides,if U.S. workers(not all,but a lot)gave a shit...if U.S. companies
weren't out to gouge workers and consumers for a $...
and on top of it all,we are so close to a world wide economy that it doesn't
really matter any more anyhow.

Hello,
The first thing you need to do is have the "swing" kit taken out... and
put the radio back to stock... sounds like some "hack" had that radio
and tried putting in a swing kit and had NO clue as to what he was
doing... if you want, I can have my tech, look at it and see what the
problem is..
