Well Jim, I appreciate your concern but to accuse me of laziness is offensive and uncalled for. I think you are presumptuous to know my circumstance and make a judgment of my character based on a few simple questions posted on a email forum. Your analysis is full of snobbery and ill intent. It's really a turn off from someone who is trying to learn the radio, its operation and functions. I think your attitude and sense of internet etiquette needs adjustment if you don't mind me saying.
I am choosing to learn this system at my own pace. I've built and configured the system just fine with this one defugalty. So back off.
