to add to this,
just because a new receiver comes out does not make it better then the
m-1000 or 236.
There is a lot that Sendero will go through when testing new
receivers.  We will test receivers in different situations.   it may
take 6 months with a new receiver just to conclude that it's not as
good as the currently shipping receiver.

Hope this helps.
