Hi guys,
Thank you again for your input. Due to the newbie-ness of myself and the obvious emerging complexity of the GPR kit, Adam has kindly agreed to a direct swap for an EXA kit (which I was eyeing up massively anyway!!). Top bloke Adam!
I will therefore end this thread and start a new build diary for the EXA when it arrives. Perhaps one day I'll revisit the GPR with a more experienced hand!
Now that I know there is so much help out there I am happier and more confident going into my first build.
Thank you all
Hesh
