First let me just say that I am very new here. IN fact this is my first post.

I have been collecting "Aircrew Survival Equipment and Kits" for over 30 years now and I never stoip enjoying it.

Now I have a question, but first a little background on my quest for a repair shop.

I carry a PRC-90 while backpacking far away from civilization for that "just in case". However, I'd like to get them serviced if at all possible just to make sure she is up to specs. They were both manufactured by OAI, Inc which is no longer in existence. I contacted ACR and spoke to a woman about seeing if they would check it out for me. I'd pay to have this done. She was just plain rude. First she tells me that the ACR Mini B2 ILS that I also own is illegal to own because the Coast Guard says so, then she tells me that 121.5 is illegal to broadcast on becasue the CG say so also. Then she tells me that ACR's PRC-90's are completely different than anybody else's, which is also a lie. Even the PRC-116 is the same with one different frequency. I try and tell her this and then she mumbles something in spanish. I thank her for her deception and tell her that she is less likely to ever get my business again (I use to buy directly from them years ago) and hang up.

What should I do?
