Anyone familiar with "Maxton" products?

I recently aquired a couple of "Maxton" programming cables, made by MST Electronics, LTD. Has anyone here ever heard of these people? Should I trust these products? What I have is a ribless Waris series HT programming cable, and a cable to handle the functions of the Kenwood KPG-22 and KPG-4 cables in a single unit. What I can see of them looks well-made, but I can't see the actual electronics, as they are potted. Should I trust them, or use them for parts to make my own programming cables?

Maxon is hooked up to and made by the same co that is whatever GE/Ericsson, Macom, whatever they're called this hour. I've got some old mobiles known as "GE Monograms" but the Maxons use a different programming procedure. They are somewhat similar but are not quite the same

Check out "Hall Electronics." Google for them

I'm quite familiar with Maxon, but I didn't say Maxon. I said "MAXTON".

Hi - I have a Maxton ribless Jedi/XTS cable and it works fine on my XTS, which is all I've tried it on.
