Well...Kale came home from the Hospital yesterday, and is doing fine. Just weak, and I would imagine a bit on the sore side...He had Heart Surgery last week, and everything so far seems to have gone well. I talked to him for a few minutes this afternoon on the phone, and he sounded like he was in good spirits, hopefully he will be able to get back on his feet in a few weeks...Just in time to finish raking up the rest of the leaves before mowing season starts!:D

whats the latest update on Kale JD ?

Well...I talked to Judge today, and what he said was Kale is still having a few problems with his recovery, and was supposed to go back to the doctor today.

I know at one time Kale was talking about "selling" Cowtown Antenna (Predator 10K) But by what Judge told me, that option is now off the books.

End of a Era? Maybe...I know if anyone is thinking of buying a Predator 10K, you better make your mind up fast! Because when what's still out there is gone, that will probably be it....:sad:
 
the predator antenna is a nicely machined antenna, I like the fact that its light weight and modular in design using replacable parts. downside is its not really engineered from an electrical standpoint, connections arent welded so HIGH power is out of the question. yeah some guys use them with 10k but I had problems with 3k, I dunno, Id make my next antenna
 
Does anyone know how to contact kale besides the listed number. I've been trying for a couple of weeks now even left messages with no response

Only way to contact Kale is by calling his number listed on the antennas shaft (817-790-6239)

He seldom looks at his emails or messages, and it's been years since he got on any of the Forums...Best thing I can tell ya is to call his phone number, and if no answer leave a short message and your name and number and see if he gets back with ya...
