working fine.

Anybody getting anything done by HAI or are the stilled closed post Katrina?

Lufkin will charge $50 to remotely program my panel. From what I've seen of
the programming manual on my Vista 15P, it could take me a couple of weeks
to program and debug. $50 sounds like a good deal. Any comments on their
