I get the impression you have to order direct from them, keeps the cost down to start with, seen some good reviews of the antennas they make, they are popular in Germany, much cheaper than a Optibeam and a divorce !!!

That Brexit exit nonsense again, I buy plenty of gear/parts from the States, I just have to pay a charge to the Douane (customs) before they will hand it over. Its the same if I buy from the UK now, they charge you a fee now the UK is now longer!! In the EU, apparently . .... Reading the reviews on e-ham, for the price, even with import duty added they are not expensive in my opinion.

Get it shipped to somebody in the EU who will forward it to you, I do this with UK based companies who will not ship to the EU now as they have had hassle with PayPal apparently, I get it sent to my brother and he sends it as a present for my birthday....

Wow, ridiculous you cannot buy goods from the EU, because apparently we left. Hope you manage to get the antenna eventually.
