Ah, *please* tell me ... do you have to play silly wotsits to make it work OK?

I have the obligatory wrapper script 'skychannel' (with some noddy locking code I found somewhere to prevent multiple channel changes at once) calling 'digibox' (a slightly modified version of red_eye IIRC that, again, I found somewhere :) ).

But I have grief making it work in one go; if I run 'digibox 101' to change to BBC1, only the initial '10' comes out. Ditto any channel: 'digibox 123' just does '12' and then the digibox times out waiting for the third digit! I've tried 'digibox 12!!!3' and all manner of variants.

I resorted to three sep. commands (digibox 1; digibox 2; digibox 3) but this takes an age [in fact I now do 'digibox 12; digibox3' with some extra no-delay */= codes in there as well].

Edit the Makefile and increase the WAIT_TIME to two seconds. I found it was cutting the power to the device before it managed to send the three digits
