Dave, thanks for the reply. My wife has wanted me to become an inspector for years, but in our area, you can't do electrical work in the same county that you inspect in, and I don't think I can make it on inspectors pay, especially in my area. I would probably have to do "side work" to make it. But that's an good idea anyway. I don't think I have any enemies in the inspection department where I live. They pretty well know my work and about me also, so I may have that much going for me. I may give it some more thought if need be. Actually, I have one inspector that lives a few houses down from me, that use to be my helper. Thanks again to all, for your input.. Steve
