Ordered one of these a few days ago. Subsequent reviews say it's junky.

True! I'll just position it where I want, then tack it with a weld.
I read somewhere that it has dual 20 watt finals? I don't know how they are configured but somebody will figure out how to put a set of Golden Screwdrivers to work in one I bet & soon if not already & I have not read about it yet.I would leave it as is but some folks will never do that.If it did a Kilowatt they would be looking for 10 more watts like it would make any difference one way or another.
SIX-SHOOTER
Not sure, but I thought I read that the transistors were rated higher. Regardless, plenty of headroom.
Got my Bioenno battery today. Dug out my El Cheapo Powerpole distribution panel. Double sided tape holds it nicely. Just waiting on my portable 10-80 vertical. Build a couple wires. Dug out my old straight key. Getting ready to break the G90 in. 
Oh, that will never work. I will be kind enough to properly dispose of it free of charge. Please box it up before trying and mail it to me......
Sweet setup, should yield tons of fun.

The newer G90's shipping from MFJ have an upgraded DC lead.
Mine came with the "El Cheapo" lead.

I think the original DC lead is sufficient but seems light due to single wires. If it was a joined wire with slightly thicker insulation it probably be more acceptable. Just odd they made the case so bloody heavy and went light on the DC. I wouldn't be surprised if you could drive a car over the case with minimal damage.
My DC lead looks like that above also!

Yes, it's sufficient, but the jacket seems cheap. I wouldn't trust it to withstand repeated coiling and uncoiling. It's just junky quality.
I just came off a 2 hour local ragchew on 10 meters. Everyone was VERY impressed with my transmit audio. It appears to have hot audio. They didn't believe I was running 20 watts. One dude fancies himself as an audio geek. He couldn't believe the hand mic sounded so good. Haven't had any bad audio reports on it yet. Initially, I had mostly OCD worries about the mic, but I do like it. Just about every command you need, is at your fingertips.
I hope they continue to build upon this unit. More importantly, I'm interested in what else they bring to the hobby.
