Mine work(ed) pretty well - I used it on 10 to make a couple of
hundred OSCAR 6 contacts (2 m up, 10 m down). The big thing you
had to remember is that the "off" switch isn't really off - since
it drew it's HV from the associated SB unit, it was still energized
even when unplugged. I almost killed myself that way once. But it
was neat to hear your own signal coming back from the satellite.
