TRNW-2: Recon TC

[Chris and Cathy Kershaw]

I’ve really only dealt with recon and dacco in a large scale. We used a few
cvc here and there years ago but had a lot of problems considering the low
volume. The deal with converter defects in my experience has always been
“sorry, here’s another converter”. Am I missing out on other converter
suppliers that go above and beyond that?
