the ability to decode the past. If you miss part of a

Hi Marc,
All speculation and conjecture on my part.
Looking at the block diagrams for the digital I/O boards looks like (a
total guess on my part) you are experiencing an issue related to the rig
design. My understanding is the MCU code runs in a big loop (likely with
many subloops).
Well COP, my response to Marc's post about his opinion about the K3. Maybe a
tad of 'mind your own business' would help you relax?
