Yes I have used the R5H and LOVE IT. Very nice card and a good price. I think it performs better than the XR5. However some people say that the card burns up easily but I run them all locked at 20db power output for all the modulation rates. I do this for two reasons. First so that the signal level stays consistent across all the rates, and Second, if they do have an issue with burning up, I'm running them at 1db under their rated power output so I'm not stressing the power amplifier built into the card. Also don't ever power them up without an antenna attached I've heard that makes them burn up as well. I have not had any such problems at all.
