45 min? you have other issues. Probably a broken wire. I use to have Ray and seatalk. never had any issue like that. Everything talked to everything else just fine.

BUT I agree with you though that: a) the seatalk box is lame. b) the tiny thin wires used (not just by Ray but by many electronics) are a complete joke on a boat. They need to be more stout so you don't have to use those tiny mounting methods. Anytime you take what amounts to an eyeglass screwdriver to work on your marine wiring you are headed for trouble. If they increased the gauge a bit you could use snap on or those euro connectors and have them in a sealed box .
When you use those tiny wires the question always arises....is it connected? The answer should not be: " I am not sure, turn it on?"
