Scot, Don, et al
Thanks. I decided that since that behavior was so unexpected that I would
just restore the logs to the condition I started with and re-run the

I now have the two computers, with a radio each, networked and correctly
recording contacts and transmit lockout. So now to set up for the BARTG
Spring contest before going off to work a week.
