Just,

I would have to agree with you that compared to Edwards, Notifier has,
at least allowed programming from the front panel.  And, I will second
the motion to frak EST.

I do beleive though that if I can call up a company and provide them
with some sort of "certification" i.e. state alarm liscence (got),
electrical liscence (got) NICET certification (got) that they should
say, "fine.. you can work on our sh**."

I don't know what standards they DO use to pick their dealers <<<cough,
cough, CASH!!!>>>but I have run into some dealer employees installing
fire alarms ******Life-Saftey-Sytems***** who I wouldn't trust to put a
frozen dinner into a microwave.

Just my rambelings....


Cheers


Bill
