4O3A US Distributor?

I see that Vibroplex has ended their distribution relationship with 4O3A. Just curious if anyone has heard news about someone else picking up distribution in the US? I can think of better ways to spend money than on shipping costs from Europe!

    Flex Radio is a distributor

    We will carry some products, but not all.

    If you have a specific product, please email us at sales@flexradio.com and we will address them on a case by case basis.

    Under the cover, you just don’t become a distributor, you need to get contracts in place, etc.

    I have order many things direct from 403a since I am in Canada and it doesn’t make sense to have something shipped from them, into the US and then into Canada.

    You will find that if you order from them, they are pretty timely in getting things out the door.

    I have ordered direct from 4O3A (Bandpass filters) and they were delivered within a week from 4O

    Flex isn't carrying what I'm looking for so going direct would be my only option. Thanks all for the info.

    I just received my Rotator Genius that was ordered on the 01-17, and received it on 01-21.

    The folks at 4o3a are wonderful to work with.

    I would prefer to use my credit card instead of a bankwire for purchasing - so that would be an advantage of a more comprehensive line of 403a products at FlexRadio in addition to some risk reduction on delivery from Montenegro. Does anyone have any recommendations for competitive products in their high-power band pass filters, triplexers and combiners?

    You can check VA6AM. I have used his high power BPF, triplexer and diplexer.
