from the file...

ALIAS 1:WIDE1 2:SAR 3:TEMP 4: ;Fillin,SAR(Local Search and Rescue team),TEMP 
(Field day) enabled
DIGIID 1:ON 2:ON 3:ON 4:ON 5:ON 6:ON 7:ON 8:ON
HOPLIMIT 1:0 2:3 3:3 4:1 5:0 6:0 7:0 8:0
USEALIAS 1:ON 2:ON 3:ON 4:ON 5:OFF 6:OFF 7:OFF 8:OFF

Wouldn't you want "HOPLIMIT1 1" for it to be a WIDE1-1 fill-in digi?

I presume having USEALIAS 4 ON doesn't cause any problems.

regarding the script...

Fillin TX with single hop path twice an hour script:
On Second
  Increment Counter 1
  If Counter 1 = 1705
    Exec "PATH WIDE2-1"
    Exec "BEA !3900.00N112300.00W#PHG27302/ W1, Use WIDE1-1,WIDE2-1 for 
access/A=003000"
  End Block
  If Counter 1 = 1707
    Set Counter 1 = 0
    Exec "PATH -"
  End Block
End Block

Would that change the path every half hour? If so, that's 17520
writes per year. How many times can you write to the T2 before
"wearing out" the flash RAM? Comments from Scott? He did
say back on March 24 2006...

     "Each config change will mean an erase/write cycle in flash,
       but the chip is rated at 10k cycles"

But then I'm confused, because he said on Feb 12 2009...

     "The EEPROM has a minimum endurance of 100,000 cycles."
