Quick Dispatch & Helpful

Ordered transceiver which was delivered very quickly. I made the mistake of not logging in when ordering so no bonus points were credited.

A quick email exchange with Henry and the points were transferred to my main account immediately.

Very helpful company.

First class service

I used ML & S to buy a base station on the recommendation of club members.
The used Yaesu FT-991A that I ordered was delivered in three days, securely packed in its original box complete with user manual.
The set looks and performs like new.
A follow up order for software and a duplexor was also completed by return of post.
I was kept informed of the progress of my orders and would recommend ML & S on the basis of their very efficient service.

Hi,I Ordered some radio equipment off Martin Lynch & Sons ltd last week Friday 04/7/2025 EAntenna EADELTA7B Icom power cable and 25mtrs of Messi and Paoloni utraflex 7 coax with best pl259 plugs,got the order on sat morning.
Checked the coax with my son and should have been 25mtrs but only 16mtrs was there, wife sent Martin Lynch & Sons email and Paul sent email saying sorry to hear cable is too short and he will personally cut coax and resend to me,Due to error please keep the wrong amount as a spare.That’s been great service to me as I was worried how to get the wrong coax back to the shop,as I cut up the back it came in.had last coax Messi & Paoloni utraflex 13 off them last year with diamond x6000n off them.
While ever I’m getting this service i will continue to shop here.Mike M1KEY

No Issues. Thankyou!

This was my first purchase with these guys, and can’t thank them enough. Purchased a Diamond Antenna. It was an easy transaction, with a very prompt, well packaged, and efficient delivery. I’m more than happy to give them my custom again. Many thanks!

Friendly, professional with excellent support.

My first purchase from Martin Lynch was driving from Germany to meet Martin himself at the Kempton rally 1988/89 where I purchased aTrio R5000 receiver which I enjoyed for many years.

My wife and I obtained our first licences October 2002 and drove to his store where we selected and purchased Yaesu FT1000 Mk5 Field plus other bits and is still fit for use.

Other items have been bought over the years at rallies mainly and each time Martin and the lads have been professional, polite and very friendly. Prices have always been very fair.

My most recent purchase was the Icom ID 52E Plus, this time dealing with his son Dan and other staff. Again, all very professional and helpful.

Dealing with ML&S now for over 35 years they feel like family and we are 100% happy with our purchases. Pleasant, professional and trustworthy they could not be beaten. I would be happy to recommend without hesitation.
