I just purchased a JRC 2000 Radar for less than a BU. After reviewing other units costing 3 times as much, I chose the JRC. My previous radar was a Raytheon that was OEM'd from JRC in 1991. It was one of the top of the line units at that time and cost many BU's. While the new units are more powerful and have larger screens and advanced features, I realized that my old unit was perfectly suited for what I needed and the JRC 2000 has more power and features than the old unit. I talked to JRC tech support who e-mailed me additional instructions on tuning the system after installation. They are more extensive than what is written in the manual. . If anyone would like a copy, please contact me off-line. While JRC has been around for a hundred years and selling products in other countries, they still have trouble with some translation. This is a CAUTION statement from the manual: "When installing an aerial, make a hole for the water pulling-out. The equipment sometimes becomes breaking cause because it is flooded when getting a hole for the water pulling-out without making it" Tech Support assured me that I did not have to worry about any water pulling-out holes...
