I can only second what the others have said about the poorer quality of 
the LaCrosse gear. But hey - like you say, it's inexpensive (CHEAP!) and 
it works - for awhile at least.

I'm running a 2317 on xastir via open2300 and xastir at 
http://map.findu.com/kc7zru
See the 'local' output at http://kc7zru.net/2300
And here's it's 'data' at Weatherunderground.com

They shore do make it look perrty <seg>

Eh, for as long as it lasts....
