which parabolics

Hi all
I am looking to get some CHEAP parabolics for my 2A just for
trialling.
Does any one Know what the following one are like.

Simmonites do GROUNDHOG £200 plus VAT
Paddocks do BEARMACH £152 plus VAT
Paddocks also do an unbranded at £165 plus VAT

I used to have Rocky Mountain but i can't seem to find a working link to
them

Thanks

Chris Perfect used to be the UK agent - none of my links to his
site work either? You could try searching for TI Console as they
were/are the UK "branch" for Rocky Mountain.

rocky mountain usually have a stand at the shows. you could go to
billing and buy them there to save on the postage. I did that when i
bought mine.

Be aware that cheap ones may not be as good, but if you only want it for
hammering around, go with the cheapest option, I would.

The best ones are probably still the T.I.Console ones supplied by Chris
Perfect components - certainly, they were ahead of the rest on quality when
I was looking at 'em regularly. But for a trialler, I doubt the quality
makes a lot of odds.

Thanks for your input

I am off to billing now to see what they have on offer .

WHAT A WASTE OF TIME

I walked round what i think was the entire show and didn't find a single set
of parabolics.
No rocky mountain stall
No simmonites
lots of stalls selling hats,keyrings,sunglasses,sweets and plants.

I came home and ordered a set of bearmach from Paddocks
