Mike, I have had allot of controllers in the past and have had no failures with the RLC-4 controllers. Highly recommend.

Another way to look at it is it's a 2 and a half port unit. Look at the CAT 3-port expander board. That may give you ideas. >- Built-in CTCSS encode/decode The 7K has a encoder audio gate but depends on an external encoder or decoder. >- Remote-programmable >- Macros >- Switch sensors to broadcast alerts (door open, fan dead, security, >etc.) >- Adjustable squelch tail for COS, and CTCSS Please elaborate on what you mean by that. To a lot of people the squelch tail is the burst of white noise you hear after the carrier drops and before the squelch closes. >- Small footprint The 7K is a 2-inch high box that bolts in a 19 inch rack. >I've looked at several brands, but can't decide which one would >provide the best service.
