[TechAssist] Re: rca splitter in plain box


You know, It just amazes me that these companies make these after market 
items and it just seems like they don't even try and put them in the 
sets the are making them for and try them out. How stupid can these 
"engineers" be? I'd think if I owned or worked at one of these companies 
I would try them out in the units before selling and marketing them. 
I've gotten fly that work but just barely fit in the same spot where 
they go. You can't reinstall the original retaining screws . The darn 
holes on the replacement are out of line with the holes on the modules. 
A great example is the zenith projection fly replacement. It works, but 
you have to but the screws in cock-eyed or not at all. Why don't we get 
together as a group, and contact who ever is the actual manufacture of 
these things and get them to change a few things. Just a thought.
