Like all good programmers, I'm very lazy and would like other people to do my 
work for me! .. Thanks for the suggestion and I will investigate THAT approach 
... although I'm not very thrilled with LC v9 at this point in time.  Also, at 
68, I'm literally conforming to the "old dog, new tricks" mentality more and 
more ... learn Java? ... really?  I even had to look up what "FFI" meant!  
Learning enough Bluetooth to use it in an app was a bit of a chore ... Ah well, 
it is what it is!

However  ... if anyone has any working related code....????

Cheers!
