Bought a 2x4 Multiswitch on eBay for $37.00, what I got was a Spaun SMS 241 F (http://www.spaun.com/sms241f.htm) appearing brand new as advertised and arriving in the manufacturer's box.

Anyone using this switch, any comments? What about the price $37.00 ($6 s&h), did I get a resonable deal?

I don't have the knowledge of some of you guys, so that is why I'm asking. For my part I am pleased, the price was right and the unit looks to be of a higher quality construction then some of the items I have seen selling for $50. at local chain stores. And not needing to inject OTA signals I did not need a 3x4 switch.

The one thing that does surprise me is that there is no grounding lug on the unit; the enclosure as can be seen in link above has end caps that make up an insulated stand-off. I suppose the theory is, if placed inline behind the grounding block the unit is grounded.

I have a Spaun 2X6 multi-switch, and it has worked fine for over a year now. Seems like you got a good deal.

You won't go wrong w/ the brand name 'Spaun'. Sounds like you got a good deal. I have a Spaun 2X4 (don't know the model #) and it's been working like a champ since March 2002.

That's good to know Harry, thanks. You probable have the same model as me, from what I can see Spaun only makes one 2x4 model. Here is a link to the complete Spaun model line (http://www.spaun.com/).
