Hey Steve,

Also sorry we could not connect. I have to wait until there is a
gateway close to me so I can register.

Regarding the memories, I would have thought ICOM would have come out
with a newer version of the memory software allowing for more than 54
memories. Maybe a future software writer, not me as I am not one, can
set it so you only put in the call sign and can check A B C G next to
the call so you only occupy one slot. Not sure that is possible though.

Anyways as I said this is a good problem and thanks for the heads up.
I will keep that in mind for future programming.

As for K2DIG it was off the air due to problems for a while. NOw it is
back. There is a small following in the City but with a wider coverage
and such perhaps some of them will use it more. I do not know Gateway
status on the new machine.
