I'd like to apologize for the difficulty in communicating VIA PHONE for the last 3 months or so.
My phone company, AT&T, unbeknownest to me, records a voice mail instead of giving you a busy signal. The indication that I have messages should be a "pulsed" dial tone.
I have never gotten a pulsed dial tone.
I should have believed people when they said the left 4-5 messages (I got 1 or 2 on my answering machine, the others went into Ma Bell limbo) I assumed the callers were exaggerating. (as an angry voice mail receipient is inclined to do)
There were messages and orders from people all over the world (many from the forum) 157 in total. To erase them, I had to listen to every one. It took hours.
To make it an even more "perfect storm" of lost communications. I have been working extra hours in the shop so I could take my first family vacation since taking over Wunderlichs 2 1/2 yrs ago. I also have to prepare for Mentone in a few days. While I was on vacation, my "voice mail" box filled up AND my answering machine started cutting people off mid-sentance (it's getting old).
I thought it was important enough to take the time to let you all know what happened. SORRY!
