Well, in actuallity, I really think the "by numbers" ops do think
everyone else is going to wait in line. Egos,,,,which are highly
contrary to their skills.

As to the split frequency bit, I'd suggest his transmit frequency
would be fair game to all.

Boy, would I love to hear one of our "hot shots" take it over and
start a run!!

Yes, zone gave a hint. That's why I asked.
But please try to LOG him (without /4) and see what happens (at least with
older version of CT). I don't care if cabrillo recognizes it, but what if
not?

Yuri.
