Good quality at this price range.
So far so good, I have seen reviews that have not been very positive but during testing I have found that the one I have received works very well right out of the box. I am using a Ra87 repeater setup and the SWR is coming in at 1.02 on the low end and 1.05 on the high end and the 40 watt radio is coming out of the duplexer at 24 watts, so I am very happy with the one I received, I am about to purchase the 30 watt version to use with a bug out five watt hand held repeater setup. I would recommend at least giving them a try especially if you are on a tight budget.

Doesn't work in a noisy RF environment
I tried using this duplexer on my repeater which was installed at a mountain top transmitter site. It was useless because the noise floor was high at this location. I even had it tuned before it was shipped to me. Eventually, I had to spend real money on a set of Telewave cans. It was painful to spend the cash but the old saying is true... you get what you pay for.

Not the greatest
These are just too physically small to work well. I get a LOT of desense when used with an Icom DStar repeater. A pair of full-sized cans provides much better isolation. Note: don't buy one of these thinking you're going to tune it with your nanovna. You need a decent bench VNA or a quality lab spectrum analyzer to optimize all six cavities. But even then, you may not be happy with the performance.

Was great.....
I purchased this for a dual KG-1000G setup. I used a vna and tuned to perfection. Was very amazed at initial performance. Over the winter it degraded considerably however. The great guys at buytwowayradios explained the poor performance was probably due to the high static voltage (I never knew) breakdown of the Teflon spacers and there really isn't a fix. I guess it's a common issue with initial performance going downhill on these. Bummer, price was right, worked superbly initially. You be the judge. Update: Dave at bytwowayradios was correct in his assumption. The insulators (2) did have burn holes in the Teflon as he explained in his duplexer YouTube video. It appears to be a common problem on this style, regardless of brand. The mfg distributor plans to provide some relief towards a new one, however if the Teflon bushings could be purchased, it could be easily repaired. Unfortunately not available. Fyi I'm running full 50w radios

Good little duplexer
Good little duplexer! I'm using it for a low-power mobile repeater, and it's working fine. Initial tuning out of the box was garbage (like only a -60 dB notch on the low side, though a -100 dB notch on the high side), but that didn't matter because I was going to tune it myself anyway.Tuning was straightforward with my HP 8714ES VNA, if a bit touchy. Breathe on the tuning screws while the jam nuts were loose and the null would shift a hundred kHz. Took a while to get it dialed in, and it was a challenge to tighten down the jam nuts without moving the notch, but again, there weren't any real surprises. All pretty standard stuff. See the attached photos for the post-tuning transmission as measurement by my VNA. Managed about a 90 dB notch and about a 1.5 dB insertion loss on both legs.Construction seems nice and solid.

Great for the price
Im setting up a GMRS UHF repeater for a friend and these duplexers were recommended as a value priced 50 watt duplexer set. I did not pay attention to how they came tuned as I had planned on tuning them to a specific frequency anyway. The tuned up easily and the isolation was within specs.I would recommend them for a budget priced UHF duplexer.

Well tuned
Unit came well tuned to GMRS with the diplexer able to cover all frequencies and separate the high/low by more than 30dB isolation as delivered. May be able to improve from there for a specific freq pair if desired as the curves showed a local null could be found but to cover all freq pairs this well out of the box is great.
