Hello all, I am getting my 38-7 chairside almost to the point of being done. Would anyone be so kind as to post the instruction form #39-5533 and/or the service bulletin #282; these describe the service data/ channel setting info. Thanks so much!!

Some day, and that day may never come, I will call upon you to do a service for me. But until that day, accept this justice as a gift
