Billy,
Thanks to all who replied to my call for help.
Great place for old guy that doesn't think like he use too.
You were right Billy. When I did the RAM clear it ask me if I had a RX366.
I was thinking of the internal sub receiver as the RX366. When I changed the 
answer
from yes to no and finished the procedure all is now ok. Again, thanks a lot 
to all.

Don,

Do you have the optional RX-366
Sub receiver installed?

(Not the factory standard sub-RX)

That setup question is only for IF
you have the optional RX-366 IIRC?

If you have the stock sub-RX ...

Try your setup again, and say NO
when asked about the sub RX.

Let us know what happens please.

Hope this helps!
