DD3JI Posted July 29, 2018 Report Share Posted July 29, 2018 Are the SBX-XL-CC-5-19 StationBox XL no longer available? Also in the product overview is only the plastic version to find, but I need the CC version in Germany currently not available and in stock at the dealers. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Sind die SBX-XL-CC-5-19 StationBox XL nicht mehr lieferbar ? Auch in der Produktübersicht ist nur noch die Plastikversion zu finden, ich benötige aber die CC Version die in Deutschland derzeit nicht lieferbar und vorrätig sind bei den Händlern.

DD3JI Posted July 30, 2018 Author Report Share Posted July 30, 2018 This is a pity because the CC were a great product for our amateur radio HAMNET radio links. Recently, I have almost all station box WITHOUT CC replaced against the CC version, since the Plasticversion after 2-3 years were very unsightly by the sunlight. (strong discoloration in yellow)In addition, the CC version offers much better shielding if you have several linksat a location.In the plastic version, you also have to buy jumper cables, which was not necessary with the CC version.What motivated RFE to discontinue the great product? ----------------------------- Das ist sehr schade da die CC ein super Produkt waren für unsere Amateurfunk HAMNET-Richtfunkstrecken. In der letzten Zeit habe ich fast alle Stationbox OHNE CC ausgetauscht gegen die CC Version, da die Platikversion nach 2-3 Jahren sehr unansehnlich wurden durch die Sonneneinstrahlung. ( starke Verfärbung ins gelbe ) Dazu bietet die CC Version erheblich bessere Schirmung wenn man mehrere Links an einem Standort hat. Bei der Plastik-Version muss man auch zusätzlich noch Jumper-Kabel kaufen was bei der CC Version auch nicht nötig war. Was hat RFE bewogen das tolle Produkt abzukündigen ?

RF Genie Posted July 30, 2018 Report Share Posted July 30, 2018 @DD3JI: Thanks. The reason is that the market demand develops in different direction. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
