3. I posted them backward if you noticed.

I fixed it now. I'm not sure what this exactly equates to. I was kind of hoping someone here would have a clue.

4. I'm hoping this means there's 70% of the rods which are fine in one and 30% in the other

But I'm not for sure that's what this means. :shrug:
