I got a bad PDX 4.100 (nasty hiss) last year and the new replacement has been noise- and trouble-free. I also have an almost 2 years old PDX 4.150 with no problems since new.

The PDXs are known to have a high noise floor, especially if you don't have a strong signal and have to turn the gains up. I wouldn't run them.
