i remember reading a computer mag this year that said a rule of thumb is
that monitors should be turned off if they will unused for more than 15
mins. computers, it said, should be turned off if they will be unused
for more than 3 hours...

Randy,

Keep this information coming and lets hope that everyone else does the 
same thing!  Makes it worth subcribing  (unlike the vanity,pig 
farmers, ect. stuff)!

It was Aland Is.   OH0MA was listed in the "prefix" (callsign) list for
Market Reef, so it thought OH0MAM was Market Reef, too.

I don't think that CT can tell the difference.  In any event, I'll be
adding OH0MAM to the country files.  You can also do it yourself in CT's
callsign field, type:

	OH0MAM=OH0

That's OK. But I feel that rule No.3 must really be No.1!!!

Well being European, I don't think I may add anymore...
