Hi Ian,
Yes, it's crap for this use.
It's very good for casual use, meaning "normal" ham use during a few
hours. Trouble starts when you want it to run 24/7, it will crash then
(with 100% certainty). I have my antennas about 50 meters away and the
coax is buried, rf chokes on all connections to the rig/pc. No rf
trouble otherwise.
