Let me know how it goes... I seem to be speniding a lot of
time training new bobs at the moment so compile time is
rather limited. Still at least I get to give them
KA9Q indoctrin^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H training.

I think I'll try the huge long init string save it to a
profile and then just use atz see if that improves matters.
But as it needs an upgrade anyway being a rather aged
accura I'm not sure how much I can be worried.

Well the get's that easy just telnet to port 80 and say:
GET /webpage HTTP
The logging is stroppy, now the billion dollar question did I
log that under KA9Q or unix and if KA9Q which version.

/* I'm getting software confused */
