Jim, I'm old - not dead! She's a real nice gal, and wants to go sailing with me before the season ends. She kept track of me the entire time I was on the sail to the Florida Keys last winter via a Spot Personal Locator, which pinpoints my boat's position anywhere in the world at the touch of a button. It fires a signal up to a satellite, which is then sent to up to 8 email addresses. It's a great safety device and the service is just $100 a year.

The S-950 sounded awesome - I am really impressed. I'm still in the learning stages, especially with the SA voices. There is probably a playing technique that I have to master with these, but I have to find a source of information on that. Maybe one of the forum members can provide a tutorial link for the SA voice playing technique.

Cheers,
