Kelly,
  I think many of us would appreciate your sending a summary of responses. 
Personally, I have two ICE 419s at home, and W6LD and I have two more at 
P49Y-P40L.  I've had no problem at home, but we've blown out various 
sections of the filters on Aruba several times (mostly 10m, but also 15m and 
160m), and never with more than 100 watts input.  Not sure what the problems 
are, but they appear to be the capacitors. One issue in fixing them is that 
the capacitance values vary from unit to unit that we have, so it is a bit 
confusing.
  73, andy, ae6y
