What I didn't realize (read it when I signed up but forgot it) is that
Gmail uses HTML as a default. This list holds all HTML mail until the
moderator releases it. So these I'm forcing to text only mode. I'll
figure it out eventually.

I guess I'm lucky, mine is in a rack with two screws to open it. There
is another rack with a cover and lock where the transmitters/audio
amplifiers are but they won't let me have a key to that. Something
about the vendors not liking it. :)  So they have to pay for a vendor
visit everytime a knob needs to be turned. {frown}

Our Ch 6 RF modulator (transmits the Spanish audio channel) went to
hum bars and almost pure hum on the audio. I told them this wasn't
acceptable, and they finally replaced it but it took what seemed
forever (4 months?). I think the problem was caused by the heat in the
closet. The sat rcvr was right under it and the rcvr gets so hot you
can hardly touch it. Now if I can get them to cool the satellite
closet the equipment will feel better and I won't pour sweat when I'm
in there.
