Hi Buck:

I'm not sure you knew that I almost lost my Bandit at Tucson on Friday....I had a cheapo 3" extension between the switch and the RX and it went south as I was in the flare....Vinnie was spotting and said "Man that was a carrier landing"...I told him I only intermittently had it down final and in the flare.....


I don't know how that cheapo got into my Bandit.....must have been the only 3" extension I had handy.....

I use nothing but JR heavy duty or Andy Lo's cables and switches from ElectroDynamics/Cermark, and SR Nicads with the 18 ga leads.....and Duralites......

Over the past 4 years, I lost a HotSpot and Bandit to electrical frig-ups......doing my best now to avoid another disaster.....

Tom
