I understand that. I specified the years which had the PIC controllers, and they're only 2004-2008 (read the parenthetical after what you quoted). I have no idea what's inside the older BASIC controllers - way before my time. I'm sorry for any misunderstanding I may have caused with bad wording, but like I said, I'm far more knowledgeable about the control systems from 2004-08 than I am about the ones older that that.

Thanks for clarifying that - after rereading my post, I agree it was a little unclear about the distinctions.

This is the truth. Sorry I may have alluded otherwise.
