Linda,

Yes, I do remember helping you out hwen you were wondering what was going to 
be coming up with the new unit that you were going to be recieving.

I am guessing that it might be my reciever, but not for certain; I will keep 
testing until Monday, and if the same problem consist that I will take the 
next step--call in.

I hope that you are enjoying your new unit and learning to use it and that 
it is coming along smoothly for you.

Kevin
