[GreenKeys] ITTY

Fri Apr 13 11:48:18 EDT 2018

Paul,

Is there any limit to how many connections can be made to a ITTY feed at 
a time??

I run ITTY & Autostart (& very rarely Europe) at the AWA Museum for many 
hours at a time.  But sometimes wonder if I should disconnect when no 
one is there to read it.  It is a great service, but I don't wont to put 
any undue burden on it.

Thanks,

Duncan
