Aha! That seems to be it! If I do a reset, set PSW to 340 and then g 14000
the program has stayed running the couple of times I have tested it.
I looked at vector 100 and it has 5267. I cleared PSW and jumped to 14000
and when it aborted I got 5271 so it isn't the LTC.
I'll have to look through that lower part of memory and see where I find
that value.

Thanks guys for all the help! I learned a lot from all this info.
