Budget sweep/ingress gear


 First,  great site, lots of useful info here!

I  run a couple of small rural  systems.  I have been researching the gear and came across the Calan 3010h and 3010r.  All the info I've found here has been very positive so I'm thinking this is a good setup to get started with. This will be an educational experience for sure, I understand the concepts but have never swept anything but a floor. 

My questions! Have there been any game changing advancements in recent years that would make these older units a bad choice? 

Any known reliability issues? Have they been dying off in droves lately? 

Assuming the above checks out ok,  are  there any gotcha's I need to look out for with the equipment? Also, what options would be recommended? I would   like to have forward sweep, return sweep and return ingress  capabilities. 

Thanks for any and all help!
