Yes, all the KA9Qs I've looked at have such a check (even YAN :), but
this little bug(ger) was all my own work. The running transfer rate
calculation in the bytecount progress display didn't check :( Yet
another casual doodle come back to haunt me :(
I'm still impressed that it ever hit though, but I must admit that the
effect of a large COM buffer didn't enter my calculations (such as they
were).
