You got it, Jack. The sender location, and the accuracy of the gauge matter. As does out tendency to worry.

Glad that worked out, Jack. And thanks for the good info. I’m sure you’re not the only one who overthinks things to the point of screwing them up!

Super cool!

Great, Charlene and Lois will be happy!
