the iAM sounds very good. i owned one, but there is a slight little problem with them. RS modified the modulator section and boosted voltage to the final RF stage thus boosting the input power well beyond the 100mW input and did not seek recertification or modification of certification forthe mods that were done. this voids the iAM as it is being marketed essentially without certification. i will likely get blasted for statingt his but anyone with electronics background and both units sitting in front of them with covers off the mods are obvious. a friend with a calibrated motorola rd2100 series calibrated monitor read the RF output at the f connector at more than 250mW output vs 135mW output of the THII.

i have decided not to take any chances of running a possibly illegally modified transmitter and run the original TH v5 that the certification used on  the iAM belongs to.

i am only posting this as an observation i made so that users of the iAM can be informed of possible certification issues surrounding the iAM improved transmitter.

i am not saying don’t buy from RS i am just saying it is in your best interests to buy the THv5 transmitter for 95.00. i purchased my v5 from radio systems global and it is a very good transmitter for the price with no issue around certification.
