PR System One RemStar 60 series Auto CPAP
PR System One RemStar 60 series Heated Tube Humidifier with Heated Tube

Realized my mistake in response to Pugsy's suggestion - I put this under additional comments instead of signature line: PR S1 60 Series Auto CPAP & PR S1 60 Series Humidifier w/ Heated Tube. I just tried putting it in my signature line this time and I do see it in preview.

the official equipment list is often problematic,... your sig is good, if you want to shorten it, you can just put "pr 560& Humidifier , heated tube" and everybody will get all the needed info out of that.

Accounts to put on the foe list: dataq1, clownbell, gearchange, lynninnj, mper!?, DreamDiver, Geer1, almostadoctor, sleepgeek, ajack, stom, mogy, D.H., They often post misleading, timewasting stuff.

PR....I have the PR S1 60 series Auto CPAP selected right now along with the corresponding humidifier.
Only the humidifier is showing up.
So there is a problem with at least the machine on my end too.
the eq list does seem to break a lot, doesn't it? maybe we should just encourage people to put the model number in their sig

the list only displays things they're currently selling, even though there's a zillion confusing things in there, only a few actually show up, at best... it'd be better if they either displayed everything (since many of those pages still exist on their web page, (reference only) or they trimmed the list to only have things that work.. I completely understand why they have links from the equipment list to the sales pages... but it is often confusing...

you're doing fine.
