    BIll,

    You can try to simplify it any way you want, but the fact of the matter is that these failures have occurred in three different shacks with three different antenna systems.  I don't think it's unreasonable for anyone in my shoes to be pretty **** sick and tired of it now.  If (as they say) they want investigate why they failed they can pay for the shipping to experiment with my radios.  Since they did not, it naturally leads one to believe that the failures aren't that uncommon and that they don't really care.  The e-mails I've received support the idea that the fan failures are exponentially higher than publicly reported and specifically people have told me that they don't report them because the cult of flex users (of which you are a board member) attacks them.

    Go be unhelpful somewhere else.
