I bought one of those a couple years ago and was really happy w/ it for a few months.
It started dropping out intermittently and was driving me nuts.
I started ohming out the 7-13 phasing lines and discovered that the rivet that goes through the boom to connect the phasing lines together all the way at the rear, was coming in contact w/ a chad that wasn't deburred completely.
Additionally, that is the worst excuse for a connection, that I have ever seen.
I hard wired mine, w/ #14 copper wire.
It's been doing fine, but I have been experimenting w/ other units and don't use it as much as I used to.
