Default Downloading a tune?

There's a Brenspeed 93 tune in my inbox. Cool!... uhhhh... now what? I'm computer illiterate and can't figure out how to get the tune onto my SCT xcal. It can't be that hard because I can't find where anybody else has asked for help, but then again I'm old, and slow. The only tunes I've ever downloaded were back before Lars Ulrich got pissed at Napster. Anyone got time to help me? Thanks.

how did you get him to send you a tune via e-mail?

he has declined my request due to worries about people spreading his tune around for free.

I think that with the new xcal's you can code a tune to only work with a specific xcal unit before you could install a tune on any xcal and pass it around.

"lost in kuwait" Thanks brother, you are the man. 116 hits on this thread and one guy stands up. I got the tune loaded now, but it is still named 89 tune. I guess I was supposed to rename it 93 tune myself when downloading it? Thanks again for your help!
