One of these nights I will be taking down the board to upgrade to version 3.6.0. That will give us the latest version of the software. Nothing will be lost. Don't worry.

Making it better and better. Now if I could only get it to accept the right adjustment for my location for time. I keep trying to select it, but it will only allow me to be an hour before or after EST. Strange. Good work with it though. Great information all over. Chris
