My trusty old Pace 2200 has finally bitten the dust after almost 5 years of
service, due to what appears to be a power supply failure following a lightning strike in our area. My insurance company will replace the box and have arranged for delivery of a Pace 5512. I'm not sure that this is the latest Pace box, I thought the 2600 was. Am I correct ? and how old is the 5512 ? Should I hold out for a 2600 ? TIA |

It's the one before the 2600, and does the job well. IIRC it's about 18 months old. -- Carl |

Ignore any 5512 ref.. It's just an old number that they use and have never
changed on their system. They always supply the latest model, currently the 2600.. Welsh Howler" wrote in message s.com...
