Hi Pete:
I believe we have finally heard from a person that is capable of conducting 
a dialog with divergent opinions that not only displays manors but is a 
gentleman as well.    Your response to Lee was refreshing and Lee, you have 
a point.

Kindest regards Jim K9AXN

Hello Lee

I apologize for my response.

I didn't get past the first sentence, but after going back and giving you
the courtesy of  reading your entire post I don't find any reason to
disagree with you.  Following the example set by the manufacturer and your
summary is usually the safest and best course for beginners.

73 and a good New Year to you.

Pete
