To be fair, all of those points were made about the C210 in general and nobody said definitively that is what happened - just one possibility in a CB, into which it is somewhat possible that the...

I think it is a bit unfair to suggest that Jazzy cannot read a WAC. His question suggests he does. True it is that the word "slopes" suggests the slope of the ranges, but in Vic and Qld this term is...
