   ... which IIRC Paul thinks should be reversible if it doesn't, or return   
   the unit as unfit for purpose and try a different make and model in the   
   hope it has better firmware, &/or contact the manufacturer of either the

   would be in their interest to fix them, and suggest further that he,   
   Carlos, would be willing to beta-test any fixed firmware they are   
   willing to provide.
