    L4000 programming problems

    Yep, good call Washmee, and thanks. It seems that I owe PDQ an apology, it was a rushed judgement on my part. I can see where the difficulty would be for the tech. team to try and walk someone with absolutely no electrical knowledge of any kind through this system, as basic as it may be. Mr...

    First time user, not sure how I got in this Jay Leno topic, and not sure how to start new topic, but I am sure that this L4000 machine was designed without a memory card, and that was dumb. But thanks for letting me know that Jay leno's got nothing to do with my problems.
