Thank you for bringing this on to the light. When the box bears an OU that will for sure get more customer base.
Not gonna happen and if it happens the increase in customer base will be statically negligible

the KVH is a completely different organization, both in terms of standards and in terms of SOP and personnel than it was 6 years ago.

Any clear consensus on using a treife grill? A couple layers of silver foil technically works, but I'm not sure of the practicalities.
