Thanks to everyone who responded on this issue.  The instructions below
worked like a charm, and the code was indeed 1111.

I have to say that this list has been absolutely the most informative and
helpful I have ever been a part of.

Looking forward to the long weekend in my Vanagon, especially now that I
have tunes and NPR back!!!  Hope you all enjoy yours.

Joe
