[alarman]

I was in Tri-Ed today, and found out that the new DSC mini transmitters
have all been recalled. DSC will apparently never learn; test, test, test...

Weird we Had the new DSC rep in our office the other day and he
mentioned nothing about it. Which is gonna suck if they did cause we
have over 40 out in the field as we speak. Guess i will have to call
TRI-ED tommorow.

4.2 is rather nasty as well, they seem to hit the sweet spot with 2.0 to 2.3

I was told (by a DSC rep) that the battery may deplete in a few weeks.
