3 FM's!! Nice to hear!!! Thanks for your explanation on the FM scarcity. The meter on mine is not working, the rest of the functions are all fine. What about...

Hi Dave, I have some Fuji and Kodak E6 slide processing mailers. Are you saying that I should send both of them directly to Dwayne's in Parsons, KS? Do I need...
