:>Yes, they do- it's just not called "bank speed" or anything like that.

And this is the exact point I was making.  You were raving about setting the
speed and no such option exists.  Had you stated what you did in your
response to my first message, I would then have only taken exception with
your last statement above.  You say it can't sense the speed and then you
turn right around and say to use the default.  If you can use the default
then you don't need to change the setting in the first place.

Your whole tirade makes absolutely no sense, you've totally contradicted
what you said first.
