Hello mglavin,

I took them back to the LHS where I bought them and they said they are fine and won't replace them.

RE: new hs 81

But when I try to move the gear train from the...

This is why it was so stiff to move the post up and...

RE: Warning about Lanier RC

Yes , Jemo.
You are right.
I should not tell other people what to do.
This was not really my intention.

Sobox
Really good stuff.
I have the Max 1.5

Better to call him rather than email.

RE: Warning about Lanier RC

There is no good resolution.

My time was wasted.
My trust was abused.
It's not worth shipping back for a refund.
It's just a lesson in " let the buyer beware ".

The best resolution is...

It boggles the mind.
