[FoxHunt] Minor software flaw in PicoDopp DF

Greetings all...

 A minor software flaw was recently discovered in the PicoDopp DF, involving
ONLY the auxiliary outputs that drive the economy pelorus display. All other
outputs are unaffected. Very few folks employ these aux outputs, since most
people primarily use the PicoDopp RS232 output.

 My records indicate 5 people are affected, but there are ( no doubt )
others who purchased PicoDopps before I started keeping careful records. I
suspect perhaps a dozen folks worldwide actually need this problem fixed,
hence this public announcement about the problem.

 The problem affects only DF bearings 256 to 359 on the economy pelorus
display, but bearings 000 to 255 function properly on the same display.

 My apologies for this, more detailed information is available here :
