these come "locked" now and you have to unlock them to get all of the features. It's really easy and I think it was either Allan or Paul that showed me how to do it. just something to remember when purchasing these now days.

Do you remember when that started? I purchased 2 of these not so long ago and were not locked

maybe two years ago. they apparently got a big fine from the FCC and this was the work around. you pretty much just have to press a couple of buttons and it go into "factory mode". You only have to do it once.

Interesting the last 2 I bought was in Mar of this year. Hmmm. Wonder how/Whats with that
