I've been meaning to mail them about that ever since I started using 
it. This discussion, and hearing from someone who agrees, has 
encouraged me to go ahead and do it (maybe tonight). I guess there's a 
chance that they may have just not really thought about it enough. I 
mean some of us are actually "losing" a bunch of money for our 
interest in electronics, much less having the profits to have our 
tools pay for themselves.

I may also politely suggest that they outsource a writer to finally 
redo that god awful manual. I'm sure they get that one all the time.
 Take Care,
