Well sure Jim. when I have done mine it and it works properly, I would be happy to try doing yours. I don't think that any of the parts are real expensive, so...
Hi, Will keep the caffeine tip in mind. I have worked some with microchips and surface mount. At least enough to know how much of a pain it is. I have a...

Al, Are you saying that Starfinder randomly chooses "One Star" alignment stars from the star list used for "Two Star" alignment? I thought it was a much...
