But, should the Wea boys rock on up with a 2.4ghz version of the wea then I'll show you a company that just took the market hands down!!

Mark,
Totally agree with you. If they would bring out a Wea FASST 2.4 GHz (respectively Wea JR 2.4 Ghz), they would simply wipe out any competition in one shot like with dropping a nuclear bomb. There are so many advantages in the user friendly Wea, that it would be the ultimate RX system for jets (and other complex planes). There would not even be a need for a DUAL receiver for this 2.4 version one, a single one would do fine with the SS transmission technology.
I also totally agree with you about the failsafe thinking. The last 25 years, I have never ever had one single case of failsafe caused by external interference. (Knock on wood) I do sincerely believe that most crashes/failsafes are the result of internal problems or weak installations, be it weak power supply, noise induced internally,..etc. and not by other transmission on the same frequency. If it did occur, it was of human stupidity and safety ignorance.
However, it came as a rather unpleasant information for me to find out that my current radio was 0,90 KHz offset too [:@]. I always believed mine was perfect, it even has special custom made crystals. Never ever had a transmission problem, though.
