4. 4 stars
well worth the price. It is not as good as a Warn winch but it doesn't cost the same as a Warn.
5. 4 stars
Seems to be good quality - The mounting on the universal mount was fairly easy. The lack of instructions only stood in my way for a short time. I haven't used it yet so can't say how well it functions
6. 3 stars
The winch works as it should, the controller did have a dead battery, I had to buy a battery before i could use it.

Family: Fisherman Died Doing What He Loved - - ABC13
Family: Fisherman Died Doing What He Loved
Reporter: Rachel Schaerr | Videographer: Jemon Haskins
Campbell Co., VA - The family remembers a Campbell County fisherman who died doing what he loved.
They say Ronald Ferguson was a strong swimmer and avid fisherman, so it seems unusual that he would drown in such a small, shallow pond.
DGIF officials say Ferguson and a relative were fishing around 9 p.m. Tuesday when their boat overturned. One of them managed to swim to shore, but Ferguson died on the scene.
Ferguson spent the last 35 years working at the Central Virginia Training Center and teaching his four sons the value of hard work.
"You can't replace this dude right here. Cause to me, he was a legend," said Joey Ferguson, his son.
Around 11 p.m. Tuesday, they learned their legend was gone. They say their lives have changed forever.
"I could tell something wasn't right by the way he was answering on the phone," said Norman Ferguson, the victim's brother
Ronald Ferguson was fishing with a relative from Rustburg at a small pond on the end of Boathouse Road. DGIF officials say one of them stood up in the 14 foot boat, causing it to overturn.
"We still haven't gotten all the information of exactly what's what. We just came from the hospital and they're still holding him there."
He was a strong swimmer and even better fisherman. So, his family's waiting on an autopsy to see if a possible medical condition kept him from making it to shore.
"He's at peace. He died doing something he loved to do and I can't blame him for that," said Joe Ferguson.
"Whenever I go fishing, I'll always think about him," said Lee Showalter, the stepson.
DGIF officials say neither man was wearing a life jacket when their boat capsized.

Glossary & Acronyms
An electrical signal that varies constantly in voltage, unlike a digital signal which varies between two constant values (typically denoted as 0 and 1). The value of the analog signal varies all the time during transmission, whereas a digital signal changes only between two set values without intermediate variations.
Asymmetrical Digital Subscriber Line (ADSL)
ADSL refers to a pair of modems connected by a copper line that yields asymmetrical transmission of data.
Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM)
A way of transmission where a start signal precedes individual characters and one or more stop signals follow it. Due to this start/stop system, delays may occur between characters. Also denotes the complete system of protocols and equipment associated with cell-based communications networks. These networks have the ab...
Two-way electronic voice communication between two or more people at separate locations.
The high-traffic density connectivity portion of any communications network. In packet-switched networks, a primary forward-direction path traced sequentially through two or more major relay or switching stations. Note: In packet-switched networks, a backbone consists primarily of switches and interswitch trunks.
Measures the ability of a communications channel to carry information. The capacity of information increases relative to a higher megahertz (cycles per second) in an analog transmission, and in megabits/second (Mbps) for digital transmission.
Basic Rate Interface (BRI)
An ITU-T Integrated Services Digital Network (ISDN) multipurpose user interface standard that denotes the capability of simultaneous voice and data services provided over two clear 64 kilobits/second (Kbps) channels and one clear 16 kbps channel (2B+D) access arrangement to each user location.
Binary digit, the smallest possible unit of information making up a character or a word in digital code processed by computers.
Device connecting two separate networks at the OSI Data Link Layer (Level Two Media Access Control Layer). Once bridging is accomplished, the bridge makes interconnected LANs look like a single LAN, passing data between the networks and filtering local traffic. There are two key classifications of bridge: those support...
A general term for a telecommunications medium of sufficient capacity to transmit high quality voice, data, and video transmissions. Broadband has been defined in many ways; e.g., a Wide Area Network (WAN) providing bandwidth greater than 45 Megbits/sec (T3); voice, data, and/or video communications at rates greater th...
A group of optical fibers or electrical conductors, such as wires and coaxial cables, usually in a single jacket. Note: Multiple bundles of optical fibers or electrical conductors may be placed in the same cable.
A string or cluster of eight bits to represent a character.
An assembly of one or more insulated conductors, or optical fibers, or a combination of both, within an enveloping jacket. Note 1: A cable is constructed so that the conductors or fibers may be used singly or in groups. Note 2: Certain types of communications cables, especially long submarine cables but also terrestria...
Cable Modem
In CATV systems, a bidirectional high-speed digital communications interface located on a subscriber's or user's premises and used, for example, for Internet access or other digital communications.
Cable television (CATV)
A transmission system that distributes broadcast television signals and other services by means of a coaxial cable.
A "code/decode" electrical device that converts an analog electrical signal into a digital form for transmission purposes and then converts it back at the other end.
Dedicated T1
A permanent telephone line reserved exclusively for one patient, accessible during all hours of the day. These lines usually offer better quality than standard telephone lines, but may not significantly augment the performance of data communications. May also be known as "leased," or "private" lines.
Defense Data Network (DDN)
Used generally to refer to Milnet, Arpanet and the TCP/IP protocols those networks use. More specifically refers to Milnet and associated parts of the connected Internet that link military installations.
