"There are currently extreme bottlenecks in procuring the components for the blue system. We will therefore not be able to offer circuit boards for System Blue again until the third quarter of this year at the earliest."

In other words, keep your systems safe and running. 

A popular and unique hobby and availability is throttling a lot of it. 

Sad, but a real problem.  I guess we should be happy with the blues and reds we have, and know that they work really well, and we aren't waiting upon some critical fixes.  I guess I'll put my power supply on another surge suppressor plugged into another surge suppressor.

But it gives me pause to think what a great system this is, with software that just keeps on working day after day, and exceeds my expectations.  Fun season coming up, so let's hope for no direct strikes to take our systems off line permanently.

Thanks for the update, Mike.
