>According to info I received from W8JI, N1JV, N2JV and W0ID two years ago 
>when I asked the same question,
>
>8877s manufactured between late 1985 and 1989 are suspect. 

//    WØID said that the 8877 manufacturing defect was produced for c. 
14-months.

>There was a design change in August 86 which seemed to be the start of the
>problem, but Tom had problems in 85.
>
//  The last I heard, Ameritron/MFJ's engineer still claims that Eimac is 
at fault for 8877 failures in the AL-1500.
