Well Jim, I appreciate your concern but to accuse me of laziness is
offensive and uncalled for. I think you are presumptuous to know my
circumstance and make a judgment of my character based on a few simple
questions posted on a email forum. Your analysis is full of snobbery and
ill intent. It's really a turn off from someone who is trying to learn
the radio, its operation and functions. I think your attitude and sense
of internet etiquette needs adjustment if you don't mind me saying.
I am choosing to learn this system at my own pace. I've built and
configured the system just fine with this one defugalty. So back off.
Stan
