Sorry if I was misunderstood.  I have no intentions of pulling down
the streaming audio of the reflector.  

When I talk about moving the reflector (1-C) to "B" or shutting down
the reflector audio totally, I am talking about on our local D-Star
system.  The stream is just something I do on my own at home.  That
will continue to run for sure.

No worries about that!
