Well - at least Jeff was polite about code - my usual comments on code 
are usually not repeatable in polite company.  Something about why fart 
around with 5 - 15WPM when the slowest mode I use is 60? (I can maybe 
get away with that at least here on Greenkeys...!). Then again I've been 
known to comment along the same lines when talking about HAMs - why poot 
around with a gallon - when the smallest thing I play with is 5 - and 
many are in the 100Kw range... (probably am in trouble with that - even 
among Greenkeyers) ;-)

Of course now that I'm getting a tty back in working order - and I'm not 
where I can get away with running in a huge "gray" area... I might 
actually consider getting a ticket.  I don't think a tech would be very 
useful for my intended purpose, though... (RTTY). Looks like I need at 
least a general...

Time will tell.

Speaking of the TTY project - I'm shopping for a standard LESU - 
preferably with the motor control module.  Anyone have one they'd part 
with?

best regards...
