Yes, I realize this is an old thread!
Just learned about this elsewhere, only in about the 3rd day of my free trial & fully expect to sign up at the end! I think it's neater than hell!

Thanks, Geoff S.
Please advise as to the best person I should send it to for a proper alignment. Bought it used a while back, seems to work well but, I do know it's slightly off frequency.
