Tony,

Thanks for all the work you've put in on this.

With regard to older firmware: I made several tweaks to the RS232 command set
between the first limited production release of rev 2 (2.01B) and the latest
(2.03D). So, I would expect K2ool to stumble upon more than one odd bit of data.
Of course the older the operator's K2 firmware is, the more likely they are to
be upgrading it, so I'm hoping K2ool will be able to report anything out of the
ordinary, then substitute some useful default value that the op can change if desired.
