    Finally...SEATED

    Finally got my 1st seated of the year. An 1841 O. That makes 8 seated in my career. Went back to where I got the 1746 KG and decided to do some tweaking on the V3i. Also decided to dig items that only gave a good signal one way. This gave a good signal both ways. It was down about 7 and I could only smile when I saw it. Have to go back there and continue with the tweaking.
