I'm Saving...

#1 Post by Drew »

But I'm not sure what for yet!?!
I'm feeling the need for a new rough ground rod, will be putting a few quid away each week between now and Christmas, so with savings/xmas bonus I should be able to afford something semi decent.

Can anyone recommend a good quality RG rod? I was thinking Nemisis Plus SLR... But I'm not too sure...

I'd prefer something from Zzippy if anyone can think of one? Maybe Straight8?

ZZiplex M427 would be good, also the ZTI or the M4 evo. Believe the conoflexs are excelent RG rods but dont have any experience of using them.
