thanks andy for meeting up with you the other day...nice experience....but by god did we scare ourselves.

There we were, almost finishing the diagnostics session between us, and we decided to go looking at the radio, we were silly...we didnt read it properly when it asked us to confim the vincode..twice, and then wondered why the radio wasnt turning off when key was taken out...we were bricking it. then we disconnected planet and all was well...hahaha. fail. lol

haha people get scared of the thought of holding a soldering iron, but its not that bad...best to do those practise circuits you can pick up from maplins for like £5 before you do anything on that scale to get your techniques etc
