I use IBox (SSN IBX10RT60--593220 with V2.0 upgrade). My internet
server, Gulf Coast Internet "gulf.net", has changed its protocol to
PPP-PAP. IBox does not retain the PAP user information which
precludes use of the automatic login capabilities.
I would like to know what I can do to make IBox support PAP and does
Spry have any software enhancements that are expected to support PAP
in the near future.
Thank you in advance. I really like IBox.

On this Thanksgiving day, a day traditionally devoted to gross
overcomsumption of food in general and turkey in particular, I would like
to make a comment about contest-related nutrition.
I have followed the wide varieties of eating habits with interest but I
would like to issue a warning about eating shaved turkey as suggested by
KM9P. Bill's other comments are in the mainstream of what operators who
are serious about the "right" food are thinking, but beware of the
turkey. At the risk of making Bill even more effective than he already
is, I would note that I have read several articles over the years (but
admittedly not in scientific journals) that indicate that turkey is high
in the amino acid, tryptophan. Tryptophan puts you to sleep. It is also
found in high amounts in milk (remember the glass of warm milk before
going to bed??). I therefore NEVER eat turkey during or for 24 hrs before
a contest (and I like turkey as I will prove later today). It is said
the reason everyone falls asleep after Thanksgiving dinner is NOT the
boring football games but the large amount of turkey!
If you are really rolling along, you really don't need much food - I
favor high protein, less fat (a rule I often violate) and high
carbohydrate (which I do not eat because I don't care for it). I have a
serious carbon dioxide deficit, so I drink large amounts of diet soda. I
know everyone swears by fruit juice but it contains lots of fiber and some
complex carbohydrates which may be less easy to digest - I don't know if
that is such a good idea.
All of what we have read is hearsay. Is there anyone reading this
reflector who actually knows some nutritional principles and knows what
might be beneficial for a sedentary sport involving intense mental
effort. Or to add a bit of history, what W1ATE used to eat and what
physical regimens he followed before and during a contest -- he may have
been the pioneer at nutritional and physical preparation for a contest.
Whatsa oldtimers??
