Lol, that's a good point.   I set all of this up about a year ago, and then
brought that FE inside for the winter.  Now that it's warming up, I
recently put it back out on our porch and got thinking about the upgrade to
.25.   But as you say, I'm not using LIRC; I have to go back and see what I
did.  How quickly one forgets the details.
