[GreenKeys] Model 28 with a new problem

[Mike McAuley]

Ok just an observation here. I don't know if it means anything or has anything to do with this.As I'm receiving ITTY, I'm watching all the code bars on the left side move in & out.4,1,5,2,3,COM & SHIFT.However the "0" code bar stays right always.I dont even know what the "0" bar does.Mike
