Shortly after receiving the crimper, I notified Harbor Freight about the incorrect die sizes. The customer service agent acted surprised. To correct the situation, Harbor Freight sent me a new set of dies. The new ones I received were the exact ones that came with the crimper. I gave up.

They don't have to die, they just need to stay the hell away from the GPS band - far away. What they really want is to be traded a different frequency band and not to just be put out of business. They are also lobbying like crazy to stay just where they are and get the FCC to back down completely.

The one with the mount that's die cast is non ferrous so it won't rust plus the cable runs up through the bracket, protecting the cable, and looks cleaner, IMO. I mounted mine under the cockpit overhead, so it's protected and it's held up well for 3 yrs. -- Steve Sipe Solo 4303 "Maerin" Brunswick, GA

2) Is the FPGA cruicial to the operation of the E100 (will it die with the FPGA)? Or will a rotten FPGA image just spoil the sampling ability? 3) Where do I put the FPGA configuration file, and in what format, to have it loaded into the FPGA? Kind regards Peter J

Hello, I have one of these units and it will never die, try fair radio in Lima OH.

I think, aluminium electrolytics are meant, as these have a lot of "wear" and can die. Hence, you can use tantal or niob electrolytics, which have a dry eletrolyt. Or you can use ceramics which are already available at 100uF. Attila Kinali -- Why does it take years to find the answers to the questions one should have asked long ago?

On the LTC1000A, Linear notes that the unit has a different die, and they recommend running the LTZ1000A 10 degrees higher than the plain LTZ1000. Has anybody computed the values of the resistors to run the LTZ1000A at 50C ?
