Thanks to everyone for the feedback on Dr. Alex UR4LL. From all accounts 
he is a very good person to deal with.

That brings me to my next question. Is the GU74B truly pin-for-pin 
compatible with the 4CX800A? IOW, can I plug two GU74Bs into my Alpha 
91B and expect the same kind of performance that I get with the 4CX800As 
that are in there now?

Thanks,

Mike W4EF.................................
