Paul L Murphy Posted September 29, 2006 Share Posted September 29, 2006 Unfortunately these certificates do not mention the unit. I am out of town on a business trip at the moment but once I get back I will do a thread on the documents, how to read them, what they contain etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
