I was just on the K40 web page doing some antenna research for my pain in the butt roommate and low-and-behold, no more antennas in their products list!

Anyone hear anything about this?

747,

OK, Here is the SCOOP!

The K-40 Antenna line was purchased by Das Inc. / DAS/Road Pro

They are NOT out of Business.

The LINK for the K-40 Antenna's Web Site for CB ANTENNA's is below:

DAS Inc. / DAS Road-Pro is also the Company that purchased the Solarcon Line of Antennas ie: A-99 and IMAX 2000 and other Solarcon Antenna's.

Hope this helps,

Well THAT makes a LOT of sense! Since Barjan, another major supplier of truck stops, bought Wilson, it makes sense that a competitor, DAS/Road Pro, who also supplies a ton of truck stops, would buy Wilson's competition!

Thanks for the info Lon!

By the way, who goes to truck stops to buy radio equipement in the first place? None of the truck stops can't begin to even come close to matching Copper's prices and the customer service/sales people at Copper are a lot better understanding in their service and product sales. If the sales people at the truck stops only knew about half of what the fine people at Copper know, MERCY.
