Hi Everyone,                                                                 
     I guess everyone gets their own opnion here on the internet. I never 
had any dealings with the consructors of the GB-500D, and never heard 
anything good or bad about the circiutry.               Have owned four 
GB-500 (still have a 500-A,) and I think that they are NOTHING to brag 
about. I have found that they were made with the "cheapest" parts around, 
and that I spent as much time working on them, as operating. About the ONLY 
good thing that I have to say about the 500's is they look good sitting in 
the shack.                   I guess if you can't buy an old one, or build 
someting better, you have to deal with the guys in TX.                       
                                                                             
                                TONY/KA7IUS
