Mike:

I did the same thing as Dan and got the same response from IFI - read the forum and try all the fixes and have a nice day. I even told them that our radios were cutting out in a small closed room sitting on a table a few feet from each other, while we were bench checking the electrical system. No cell phones around, no metal from the robot, direct path between antennas. Never an indication from them that there is a systemic problem. The only reason I called them at all was I saw the hundreds of posts on CD from teams who were having problems, and the advice from one person who had received an RMA number. I did not post my problem here - it looked like it was pretty well covered. I believe your estimate of 10 calls is grossly low.
