Thanks again Paul. :-)
I designed this system and had a commercial version up and running in
Feb-95 after chatting with David Tait on the old MicroChip BBS.

In May-97, with the help of Antti Lukats, the Simmstick version was
introduced and there are now thousands of happy users.

We have had our own Simmstick list server for some time now, and
distributors are available in many countries.
This design has a 4PDT switch to get from program to run. What could be
simpler???
