lambdahalbe.de ... still in business??

Hat zufällig jemand hier im Reflector Informationen über www.lambdahalbe.de?

Ich habe in den letzten 14 Tagen insgesamt drei E-Mails an den OM geschickt, aber bis jetzt keinerlei Antwort erhalten. Die E-Mail-Adresse auf QRZ.com funktioniert auch nicht …


Somebody here in this reflector has any information about www.lambdahalbe.de?

I wrote three e-mails in the last 14 days to him but did not get any response. The QRZ.com e-mail-adress is not working …

Hi Martin,
I just ordered two antennas from Willi Daubermann DH3PZ yesterday - so I HOPE he is still in business!
His ordering system is very manual, and I got an order acknowledgement from him, so I think he is still there (Note his IBAN has changed though).

email address should be - lambdahalbe (at) online.de

If you used DH3PZ (at) darc.de - perhaps he hasn’t renewed his membership to DARC?

Hi Ed,

thanks for your reply. I wrote e-mails to both addresses you mentioned.

lambdahalbe (at) online.de → no response
DH3PZ (at) darc.de → not available

I did not use the ordering system on his webpage because he is only shipping to Germany … that’s why I wanted to contact him. A friend in Bavaria will collect the parcel and bring it to OE on his next visit.

Please keep me informed if you get any response. Thank you.

Hello Martin,

I just spoke to Willi. We are both in the same darc Ortsverband. His shop is open and can be reached at the first email address. The @darc address is inactive. You might try sending him a message again from a different email address.

Thank you Stefan for your response. I sent my inquiry/order with another email address … hope it will get through to him now.

Willi, the owner of lambdahalbe.de contacted me. It’s all sorted out now, it seems his (or my) emails got lost somewhere … thanks all for your help.

Good to know Martin!

I tried to contact Willi with the @online.de email address but never got a reply. I’ll try it again.

Hi Martin,
I know you have made contact in the meantime, but just to say my two new antennas arrived fine from Willi and are working fine. Lovely craftsmanship.

Yes, I can agree with that. I have a few antennas from him and they are all ufb. Especially the 2m/70cm end-fed play great.

I wrote to Will back in 2020 and he replied that he will not ship to Poland :frowning: Pity as some he has a interesting range of antennas at a good price.

That is correct, as far as I understand he will only ship within Germany and payment has to be up-front via bank transfer to his bank account. He does not want the additional issues of trading internationally.

My order was delivered last Friday (to a friend who lives in Bavaria). He will bring the parcel to OE5 on his next visit in 1-2 weeks. Payment was possible via bank transfer from my Austrian bank account.

Just saw an announcement that the owner of lambdahalbe will be closing in 2024. He is looking for potential successors …

Oh, that is disappointing news Martin.

I know Willi had closed his online shop for a month but that was supposedly as he was waiting for stock.

The online shop is open again now and I have quickly ordered one of his 6m mini-masts (€36 + €6 shipping) - which I have used for the last 12+ years. He also sells what are J-antennas for single bands 20m through 10m which I can recommend - he lists them as just Drahtantennen at prices I couldn’t make them for myself.

I have hoped to see him at Friedrichshafen again next month but I guess that is unlikely with this news.

For those wanting to buy from lambdahalbe.de I believe he only ships locally and payment is via bank transfer.
