Hello Al,

Regarding the plastic tubing used in Your, Oliver's, and perhaps many other installations there should be no issues. WHY; becuase you guys have done extensive range testing and have also used sensible tubing. I am not sure what material was used on the Velox but I can guarantee you that there was no range testing done before the first flight after the modification.

As you know some plastic tubing can conduct very small ammounts of electricity, large enough to induce a good source for a static discharge, enough said.

Despite all the information thrown arround on this thread I still doubt there is anything wrong or faulty with those 12X transmitters in question. This is of course my opinion and I tend to speak my mind, so I hope I don't offend anyone.

JR quality control standards are second to none.

Regards,

Darryl
