Please consider whether the snotty supercilious response you have just given is conducive to encouraging others to help.
This project is only going to grow and will need all the help it can get at a variety of levels. Your attitude will do nothing to assist there. I humbly apologise for not picking up on the difference between colocation and frequency pairing. It would have been far better to have simply ignored my useless contribution but you took it upon yourself to issue a pointless smackdown. Luckily, I have been lurking here for a while and know that your attitude is not truly representative. Others may not be so fortunate.
