Hi all best wishes for the season etc etc,

As this is one of my few posts, i'd like to say Ta! to all of you silent heroes who have helped my friends and myself, from the early days of these devil-like machines!!! CHEERS!!

Having scoured the forums for all the help i could imagine, i'm hearing nothing but problems with updates, lack of favourites, fault codes etc. i know there are many many posts with the majority of questions answered, but i have a few problems, not yet resolved!!

My concerns are:-

Should i buy frozen sprouts or fresh?
Should i buy the more expensive crackers from as_da or the cheap ones?
Which is the best mulled wine?

Please please help, i'm at my wits end!!

God forgive my actions if the telly stops mid_queens_speech!!!

happy hol's and all the best to you all!

p.s.
sorry for taking the p--s, but surely the party has been a good un so far!! let's be grateful for more important things, closer to home!!
Let's not all get TOO serious and stressed, if the seriousness becomes too stressful!!

season's greetings!!

all the best for the new year y'all.

( no doubt i'll be banned for not using the xmas dilemma forum!)

no offence moderator chaps!!!!!

If you purchased it from the UK it will need to be re-tuned for your area.

MENU button.
Go to INSTALLATION and select USER INSTALLATION
Type in your pin (0000)

Press the YELLOW button for POWERSCAN,
