I don't think Mark is a bad guy at all. He was really concerned that it got out to me with the buttons intermittently working and really wanted me to send it back so he could take care of it. Problem is, I didn't want to be without the radio for another month. So... I fixed it myself.

He even called me a few times after that to see how the radio was doing and if I was still liking it.

So far, no problems with the radio since. It gets plenty of compliments on how good and clear it sounds and I've verified it myself by recording it from another vehicle at some distance away. Even with the power turned all the way up and the mic gain wide open, it's crystal clear. And that's the bottom line.

Actually, three of the buttons didn't work on the front panel when I got it. So I took it apart, even though he told me not to. He wanted me to send it back and I wasn't doing that.

I pulled the display and the front circuit board off and cleaned all pins. Voila! Working buttons.

That may be what bored is talking about them not handling the vibration. Besides the pins having a poor connection, there were solder tits poking through the flimsy piece of plastic insulator that keeps one board from shorting on the other. Really kinda piss poor cheap design.
