Was down in ur hood for tday in Gsburg.

Yeah, I replaced R1 with a new 39k I had.  Was reading about 2500 over.  Meant to mention that in the last post.  Did you get to Rockville while you were down?  How far is it from where you live?  I'll check the grounds next time I'm poking around in there.  Didn't think of that. Thanks for the heads up on that.  Ed
