I made this offer to Jim, so he has first option. I have both a ARR144vdg and 432vdg in excellent condition excess to my needs. I'd prefer to sell the pair $250 shipped conus. Pic's available on request. Paypal preferred.

I find myself in the same boat! I've always depended on ARR for preamps,
but
they told me material cost to build the units will run the price up too much, so they decided to stop making the 2 M preamp I need. Here is one you might want to look into Jim. I've only used Mirage for
their
pw amps in the past, but have been fairly satisfied with their product
and
repair service. https://www.mirageamp.com/Product.php?productid=KP-2/2M

My 22 year old Landwehr VHF preamp finally gave it up.
I'd appreciate leads on high quality mast mounted preamps for VHF. AR2 doesn't answer their phone and some uni's I work with say it takes
days to
get a call back then AR2 didn't have the one they wanted and said they would not be making any more. And SSB USA's recording says they are
only
available sporadically. Looks like I can order direct from SSB in
Germany
so that's an option.
Are there any low noise RF switched manufacturers/vendors in the U.S. these days? Where are folks getting preamps these days?
Jim
