Conveniently, I was just talking with them about a custom antenna project. On some items, they will sell direct to the end user.

They said they have two "distributors" in the U.S.- Vasu Communications in Ohio, and Kimark (?) in Dallas (who I couldn't easily find with Google), although they said neither of them is really a stocking distributor in the traditional sense.

thanks for that info,

I couldn't find any of those that you listed using google.

Their web page only listed a Canadian distributor and it indicated they needed a US tax exempt number to ship direct through US customs.

I would strongly recommend you consider Comprod antennas instead of Bluewave as we recently undertook an expensive re-and-re of 9 failed 'extreme' duty Bluewave 210C2 style units from coastal mountaintop sites. Failure analysis on each one showed extensive corrosion from water ingress. Their construction is just not up to par with other manufacturers and IMHO the product is not suitable for coastal locations. YMMV.

I was just trying to find resale pricing info on a 3 el 900 yagi that someone gave me in a box of junk.
