Pete - I have had one for about 1 1/2 years - on the 70cm antenna. When the GO-32 9K6 BBS board was up it made the difference between reliably receiving and not. (I am working on getting on the AO-51 BBS) I know S meter readings are all relative -- I usually see at least +20 when the polarization is correct. I have roof mounted antennas so I was able to do the modification without taking the antenna down. I did shift the antenna mounting position on the boom to account for the extra length/weight. During installation checkout - I did have an issue with the protection diode that was installed across the relay -- I had to replace it. Other than that -- it has worked fine.
