so what your trying to say Kerry is i should have gone out and bought a lotto ticket

although most of your comments go straight over the top of my head i do enjoy reading your comments on the matter as you sure seem to know what your talking about.

:twisted: my favourite topic :lol: Somewhat unrelated except for the 2 WAAS Sat's or whatever they are but i remember in a thread once i was being told that i was wrong and you wouldn't be able to pick up 14 Sat's when at sea level, Well a little bored one afternoon whilst on Main Beach at the Gold ...
