I too stand by it 100%. And as a matter of fact, 1 bulb burned out is not
enough reason for me to send it in for repairs! Even if I have the sound
turned down, when the display changes from 0 bogeys to 1+ bogeys, it catches
my attention. It's not to tough to figure out here he(they) are if there
aren't any arrows telling which way. Now if the bulb for the rear goes out,
then we've got a problem. ;-)

Hey, it will also lower my repair bills as I pay for shipping once. Then
again, I've sent it back ONCE in 5 years for a actual detection problem. Had
it back in 7 days!
