After coding with a sharpie, the CV 21 is recognized as a 21 when I press the Info button on my M8. The 135 is mis-recognized as a 21. The others are not recognized as coded at all. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong. However, when I print off the template mentioned above, the diameter seems a bit too wide, so I have to kind of guess the correct positioning for the sharpie marks. Any advice welcomed! Peter Cheyne
