Hmmm, mine works OK! I have made numerous QSOs on 60m
but most were during the first week that it was opened!

Nothing melted in mine.


YET! I think the prudent thing to do is make sure you are running
relatively low power when operating on 60M. You are supposed to be
running maximum of 50W ERP. I'd think 10 or 20 watts out of the
transmitter would prevent over-heating of the band pass filter components.
