Hi Brian,

I agree, it is a great device, used mine to feed my entire receiver 
stack, but as with anything, watch it when lightning is around. I took a 
near hit to a tree in the back yard and it fried my M-50-8, powers up 
but nothing being fed thru, totally brain dead. Haven't looked at it yet 
to see if it is repairable or not. If I can't fix it, I will get 
another, I like it that much.
