dude, i totally agree about 'garbage' situation. i'm puzzled at why they can't make a unit that would simply work. amount of problems posted on this forum alone is just staggering, anything you can imagine. probably will never buy a deck from them. will do more research next time on reliability issues.

common guys, please help me here. need to fix this thing asap. i thought this would be the place to get answers to questions like that. can anybody help?
