Bill,  You understood incorrectly!

His response was to get rid of the -5 switch because of it's
apparent non=reliability!  And,  yes,  he said some users of
the -5 have had success for years,  just happens,  but most
have problems of sorts.  He certainly was not saying,  to me
or anyone else,  sell your current linear and order a TT linear.

I am very sorry if my post implied such.......just have heard
of too many unhappy users of the -5 gadget.
