Hello,
well my friend Johnny WA6RHK as had terrible luck with his. He bought it new
and it was a problem write out of the box. He sent it back, they sent it
back ,he sent it back you get the idea. I think HRO just gave him his money
back and said sorry. I always heard good things about them and then after
MFJ bought them, well you know the rest. I have had RF concepts and they
have worked fine for me. Good luck. 73, Dan KM6CQ
