Guys: there have been various opinions voiced here about the ATHR systems and some of their idiosyncrasies. Some have outlined their weaknesses and slightly inconvenient characteristics. I've expressed my thoughts on complicated non-moving ATHR systems. An attempt to reinvent the wheel. But, a further observation; guys have suggested 'work arounds', 'tips & tricks' to bypass the basic design and overcome the unwelcome quirks. If that is the case then surely it says that the original design is not correct and should be re-done? It's not healthy to have a weak system design and allow random crews to devise their own working solutions, while others follow the manufacturer's ideas and fall into the lurking traps.
