GENERAL
INFORMATION: We would like to bring to your attention a growing problem.
Our latest revision of the Coax board ("Coax-base" is the
nickname) fails to run in environments where our older style
1B board worked.
These problems began several months ago. However, as the
board is more thoroughly integrated into the market, we are
seeing more incompatibilities. The boards appear to fail in
"offbeat" environments. We see the failures in nonstandard
Coax, off-brand multiplexors, etc.
However, because the 1B boards work in the very same
environment, we feel it is an incompatibility that should be
remedied.
We urgently request you to give us all Coax base board ERs.
We want to also know details. From each detailed environment
description, we will be able to either obtain that specific
equipment or travel to the site and run Coax traces.
