Re: DTXpressions contact?

2003-10-18 by Nick Carroll

Hey, Vern.  I've just been reading the last few weeks' messages, and 
come across Rich's instruction for programming a kit with GM sounds.  
As that instruction is not included in the owner's manuals, would you 
consider adding it to the Tips & Tricks at DTXpressions? It was 
message #6623. Thanks.
Nick.
P.S. I still can't find an e-mail link on the DTXpressions site for 
those who want to submit Tips & Tricks. Would you consider adding one?
