Bill, 

I can?t tell you what the problem is that you?re
experiencing with the signal loss, but I can tell
you I used my SO40 transmitter for four years now
with Ni-MH rechargables, and easily get five hours
out of a single charge even if I never turn it off
during a gig.  And mine has been dropped, and
kicked, and has exploded, (resulting from the
drop).  And AKG was still able to repair it for
me, (and though out of warranty), at NO charge.
Oh yeah, the split or crack by the #1 pin is on
every unit I?ve seen so don?t worry about that.
And one final comment, (and Tim probably
remembers), I?m still looking for another
SR40/SO40 or WMS40/SO40, as AKG no longer makes
the SO40 and NONE of the major online or catalog
dealers have any left in stock.  So, if you decide
to give up on it, holler at me.  Good luck sorting
it out, and I wish I could be of more help!

Steamin? Stan
