I've personally never had one. But I do know a few guy's that run them. They have no problems with them at all. The converters these guy's are running range from 3200 to 4500.

Cool
Hughes are no problem, good brand.

But, being as you are closer to Georgia, take a look at Georgia Convertor.

Jim Hughes' stuff is fine, he is a good guy to work with. If you're interested, email me and I can quote some prices on TCI and JW stuff, I would bet I can save you a few bucks.
