Would agree. I"m not sure what it's story is, but my routing works well enough through 3634/12. THe strange part is my z1 routing seems to work alright through her system. . Anybody lurking around here shed some light on all this? Regards, Richard --- timEd 1.10.y2k+ * Origin: Radio REscue net operations BBS (1:116/901) .
