Dear Bill,
    I can assure you there are none.  If you want to prove that, just run
the test we use to qualify every new receiver design:  1) Put the receiver
in an airplane big enough for you to see at 2,000 ft up.  That will have to
be at least six foot span for the average person.   Our Tim and Howie can
see much better than that as the airplane always disappears from my 69
year-old sight long before he quits climbing the airplane.   2) Install any
receiver you want to check 3) Pick a clear day; don't try it when foggy ,
cloudy, or high humidity 4) Fly the airplane to the max distance you can see
it.  You had best do this overhead as it is difficult to see an airplane at
2,000+ ft down low against clutter 5) Collapse the transmitter antenna
(Better yet , have someone else do it as you may lose sight while doing it
yourself. 6) Fly the airplane with the antenna collapsed just as you
normally would.  7) Turn on at least one adjacent channel transmitter and a
3rd order interferer while doing this.  8) DON'T DO THE FOLLOWING  AS WE
HAVE ALREADY DONE IT WITH M5: Turn on a transmitter on the same frequency
and watch the SMART decoder reject that transmitter.   CAUTION: If you try
this, be sure to have a helper stand by to pull the transmitter antenna to
full length.  All this in a package that weighs about 9 grams.

Happy flying,
Fred Marks
