Re: Stolen Antenna
The Police probably were the ones that took it from you.

Dummy load on a ham stick is cheap. Buy a new one.
And next time when you're parked store the antenna INSIDE your car like I do. |

You should report it to the police. If there is a string of theft in the area the information would be helpful to them.
Don't bother looking around for it or expect to get it back. It was probably stolen for its scrap metal value and is now on its way to becoming a Toyota.

My guess is that who ever took it does not even know what it is. They just took it cause it was there.

Man that's terrible! I'd go nuts if someone stole my resonant 20 meter hamstick. That's food for thought... I've also heard of people intentionally breaking them and bending antennas.

said by kewlkeed  :, but you'd be surprised what slipping a few dollars to someone will do. . . . or having the police investigate.

First thing I would think is are there any cameras in the area? Parking decks usually have them. Most of the time you need something official to see the recordings, but you'd be surprised what slipping a few dollars to someone will do. |

| Someone just stole my new 20 meter antenna. Since it is too tall to enter the parking deck at my work, I take if off and lay it on the side of the car with one end on the rear view mirror and the other on a support I installed near the trunk. I last put it there when I got back from lunch and when I leave to go home today, it is gone. Some ****** took it!
If this has happened to you, please tell me and let me know what you did. I live in a small town in New England so It's got to be somebody local. My first instinct was to contact law enforcement but I figured they wouldn't really care or make it a priority since there are bigger fish to fry (break-ins, theft, murder, etc.). What can I do. I'm about to go cruising looking for it but I doubt the thief would be dumb enough to display it so soon. |
