PoolAlarmPacker, Greenbay won big against those Lions. I hope I get to see a few Packers games this year. It might be Favre's last season. I know we've heard that before but now I'm starting to believe it. -AlarmInstaller P.S. I still have not been able to install that alarm that you put so much effort into getting to me. I really feel bad about it. I just haven't made the time for it. I haven't dug that long trench from the pool to the house but I realized I could have tested it without having it in the ground. So now my other poor excuse is that I can't find anything to use after I drill my hole through the aluminum wall and the rubber liner. I'm afraid my liner will rip if I don't get some sort of grommet or plastic nipple to pass the hose through. The pool stores by me don't have anything I can use. I may try using some sort of fitting I use in the electrical trade. Anyhow, I'll try to have it tested before next week when I plan on closing the pool for the winter. Sorry about that dude. I really am.
