And since when do you have the right to comment on my ability to read english.
Easy. Since I and others keep telling you the same things, which you don't seem to want to hear. There's no law saying anyone has to suffer fools gladly.
I have frequented numerous help forums, and to be honest your comments have been the least constructive, not only of my posts, but of any post I have read, anywhere.
Go back and look again - who broke down and spelled out the possibilities for you? You're just chucking lame insults. Very good.
I thought the whole idea behind these forums was to help those not in the know. You should be more understanding that not everyone has the same knowledge (or wants to have the knowledge as you) and just needs some basic constructive advice.
You're being given advice. Which is, Don't get hung up on it being the pcb, and certainly don't start demanding a free/cheap replacement or you'll be worse off. If it only exhibits the fault on one of CH or HW, why should it be the pcb, which can't tell the difference? You just don't want to listen. You're being given advice and reasons for it. You're objecting to the reasons and pretending the advice isn't there.
then I've obviously come to the wrong place.
You have. If you don't want to be confused by information, just keep being the one who is soon parted from his money. Good luck in your quest for a forum which gives you unbridled support for your fanciful notions, which seems to be what you're looking for.
