Yes I know and I hear you. ProTrans is prob 100 miles from the OP. It's easier to deal with people within driving distance. Long distance relationships usually don't end well, especially in this situation because of shipping costs. Shipping is approx 200$ each way. In this hobbie unfortunately it costs $$ to learn. I've spent my share that has ended up in the scrap pile for sure.
I just hope it gets fixed one way or the other. The op was talking about junking the whole project over it? unless I read that in another thread?
