Amateur Radio Insurance

In reply to G0LGS:

Having to pay just £125 to replace an array of various VHF antennas,
poles, Heliax feeder, connectors, rotators etc would be a bargain (I
could hardly replace a single antenna for that money).

LOL! I don’t think the total value of all my antennas at the home station is as much as £125.

Yes, about 15m of three core mains cable here. Oh, and a 2m Tonna which has been reduced in its old age to 5 elements with a steel mast that cost me about £25 at a rally in the 80’s, neither of which see the light of day for much of the year. :slight_smile:

As for the equipment, most of it falls within the general section on the home insurance. A fair proportion of it is 25 - 35 years old or home constructed, so hardly worth worrying about and some of it might not be easy to define on a policy anyway.

Ha! It seems you had exactly the experience as I did! Did you get a
phone call from someone called “James”?

That’d be the feller! Must be a thankless job, can’t help feeling a degree of sympathy for him :-s

I feel about the same degree of sympathy for insurance brokers as I do for bankers!
