To John Berdner:

Thank you for this information.  I just wish more manufacturers would offer
this type of information.  I remember when it was said by a member of this
group, in essence: "if you can't design these systems yourself, you
shouldn't be in this business."  That view is short sighted: many of us can
competently design and install these systems but need specific advice on
specific equipment.

Sincerely,

William Miller
