I know about the other crap too...... Bass is a professional "Agitator", I
knew a few back in my CB radio days, those guys loved to tear up a channel
for hours each night... When he says things like "any monkey can install an
alarm", he's pushing buttons (A.K.A. dropped the hook in the water) and
waiting for a response with a grin on his face... A couple of minutes will
pass before the first "F**K you (A.K.A. Bite) comes in... ahhhhhhhhhhh
satisfaction is achieved after he gets another persons goat....... Need I
say anymore?

I used to, but I've gotten tired of giving free advice to people that seem
to expect it... The whole "I bought this system from ABC electronics and
need help installing it" scenario is really old... I wish they'd call the
company they purchased the system from... Why should any of us provide free
tech support for online dealers that don't answer the telephone?
