Hi Rich

That is why I sent the feeler out the way I did. I want to see where he is 
coming from and see if this is something good that FADCA would want to help 
with. On the other hand he can get all the info he wants from the FADCA web 
site.

This is another reason that EVERYONE needs to send in NEW coordination 
paperwork so Russ can get the database up to date with what is REALLY out 
there....

I'm going to send in NEW paperwork for my 2 switches as soon as I know all 
the ports that are going to be running with the switch being moved to the 
EOC and the new LINUX fpac switch here at the house...
