Very good. Doesnt overheat like other people say. Use it on a 12V Pb 7Ah battery that powery my antenna tracker. Gets warm but not hot. Switching is very good, you dont see it when the image switches.

Muy contento con este diversity, lo uso con una SPW en un rx y una helical en el otro, el cambio es rpido y no notas nada en la pantalla. La sensacion es tener un video mucho mas claro y nitido durante mas tiempo, perfecto, muy contento con este diversity. Adems puedes usarlos como dos rx independientes cada uno en un canal y tiene tres salidas de video, una para rx1, otra para rx2 y la tercera es la que hace el diversity. Como decia antes lo recomendieno, no notas en absoluto cuando cambia de antena y lo hace rapidisimo

After reading some of the comments about this product (after I had already ordered it) I put them to the test.
1. The diversity works
2. Antenna tracking works (check compatibility)
Its small compact and the power terminal it away from the antenna jacks.

This thing gets hot.....really hot. I burnt my finger by touching the outside after it ran for about 20 min. The voltage regulators heat up way too much. 175 degrees running at 12v...before thermal shutdown. Better at 9v but still over 120 degrees and noticable glitch when antennas change.

I removed it from the case, added a bunch of heat-sinks and a small fan and cut outs for airflow. Runs well now. Tested for 2 hours and stayed below 100 degrees.

I like the rx, just wish they would have placed a bit more importance on product quality.
