Pot - kettle - black.

My reply was laced with sarcasm due to your disrespect for those on this
list.  If you want help, I would suggest posting up here with an
appropriately polite email.  Not an email implying that everyone that is
going to respond will be a "empty-headed" type person that will ask
"stupid" questions or offer up "iffy" answers.  All those answers you
consider "Iffy" may actually lead you to the solution.

I did offer something up, you chose to ignore it.

**** WHAT switches did you use during setup?  Any? ****

Your post never stated that you did.
