So, if BBK or anyone would like to 'donate' MRT transponders to my club so that we can help newcomers get into the hobby, or cover someone who may come with a Purcy, please PM me.

Interesting idea DCM, and I will take your idea under advisement and discuss it with some other friends of mine. I do have half a dozen that need to find a home.
Yet at the same time it makes me think this is letting MRT off the hook.
Personally, I'd rather MRT have directly addressed this in this thread - as many other manufacturers have in other discussions - so others can see what they're actually doing about it instead of relying on rumor of something that may never happen.
