This is all too familiar, Nick.  It seems ridiculous
that several of the installers who hang out in
ASA rag on me for being unlicensed (I sell online;
no license required) yet they ignore

I recently got a call from someone in  the area.
They wanted to know if Bay was a good choice for
monitoring their alarm.  I told them what you had
said about Bay and suggested they contact you for
monitoring.  They were nice folks -- installed their
own Napco P3200 system.  Hope you got the
monitoring contract.
