You miss the point. I could have paid a lot less ofr stuff to break (or not in the case of 2 of my rigs). Seems to me you're suggesting I shouldn't feel too bad at being shot when I could have been hanged ....

Methinks your glass is half full Grant whereas mine is maybe half empty ;>)

If a potential purchaser asked me for my opinion I think I
would have to say
honestly that in my experience, it's performance (especially
receive) is
great  but let down by its reliability

I guess you would have to consider yourself lucky that you didn't have one
of the $12000 radios that had a bad patch of blowing finals, or one of the
prvious generation of $5000 radios that burned up power supplies
periodically and on which (power supply compartment) one could poach an egg
:-)

Stuff breaks.  We need to get over it.
