Thank you Skipp for the manual for the SCR-77. I can not contact 
Spectrum. They will not respond to there e-mails and when you call 
them you just getting a recording saying to leave a message, which I 
have, still no contact yet. I have also thought about installing 
another ID'er. What would be my best bet there. I have heard Com-Spec
(Communication Specialists) makes a small simple ID'er.

73,
Tim
