I too have this combination and have used it with varying degrees of success, though I do regard the TC as giving fairly good value for money.

I can't really add much more to what's already been said and I think Colin's comment sums it up -

I know that John has had some excellent results with his set-up, though Gerry is clearly much less impressed

So, you pays your money (or not) and takes your choice!
