Is anyone out there in net land having problems with SYTEK 20/222
reliability?  I have had five of these babies go out on me in the
past three months.  This might not be unusual for units purchased
at about the same time, but we installed our supermuxes in July of
THIS year and I think they oughtn't be failing so soon, at least
not so close together. Five of the twenty-four boards we have is
really LOUSY if this is indicative of the reliability we can expect.

SYTEK has been pretty helpful, and they are checking on it at the 
production end.  My real question is: Is my problem with these 
strictly local, or have other people been experiencing similar 
problems?  Is there anyone out there with a big enough installation
to be doing a study of the reliability of these units independant of
SYTEK?

I'd sure appreciate some input...

Thanks in advance,
