Can it be said, if you have a task that you are being paid big bucks an hour to perform, and have to stop in the middle to go the little boys room that you are "malfunctioning"? A firmware update is a heck of a lot better than a "blown up" unit. We have a bunch of various brand and model gps units (time, frequency standards etc.) and several we were required to update firmware over the years. Still going strong after their malfunction or update. _______________________________________________ time-nuts mailing list -- time-nuts@febo.com To unsubscribe, go to https://www.febo.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/time-nuts and follow the instructions there.
