Hi Les,
Well there's where I went wrong. I downloaded Puppy and installed it to
boot on the hard drive! Yes...I have run it in RAM from the bootable CD
and from a USB "memory stick". It works wonders for *old* computers. Now
wait just a derned minute. Compared to ARC5 radios there ain't any *old*
personal computers! Otherwise I would've had one when I was a kid
instead of playing with some old radio.
73,
