Are you saying that AGREE says that MTBF data for these two pieces of equipment is 154 
hours and 79 hours? 6.5 days for the 618T and 3.3 days for the ARC-58 !?!?!?!

If so, this is truly amazingly, horribly, bad!!!!

Why would anyone want to use such crap?

If I had to rely on such pieces of apparent junk for my life, I wouldn't have either one 
anywhere near me!!!!

Frank Ledda says that the (average?) MTBF for the ARC-58 was 1000 hours! That's almost 
42 days. Why the HUGE discrepancy?
