ment. All of our products are backed by a comprehensive warranty program.
Note If you purchased your equipment from a Patton Electronics reseller,
ask your reseller how you should proceed with warranty service. It is
often more convenient for you to work with your local reseller to
obtain a replacement. Patton services our products no matter how
you acquired them.
