I was asked to service an older System3 up in Hudson, NY in an old Hotel. I
told the owner he'd be better off getting rid of it instead of wasting time
and money trying to fix all the problems. I gave him a price to swap it out.
He called Sonitrol in for week to see if they could fix it....needless to
say I was out there a week later replacing everything, and repairing wiring.
Good God their junk. The Government loves them POS though. The army uses it
religiously.
