    Good point, Steve.

I guess I was just thinking of general instructions.  I know that one time
my beeps got turned off, I had to get sighted assistance, since I didn't
have the programming software at the time.

So, again, I was just giving general instructions.  It sounds like he got
the problem resolved with some help from a friend.

Aren't these radios fun sometimes?  HI!  HI!
