	The statement that the "Multipsk program has some oddities" is really
an understatement, BUT IT DOES WORK AND IS FREE!  Would rather have
something like Digipan with adjustable speed.  It seems to work better
than anything else I've tried.  I'm afraid the long arm of TAG won't
reach out hear to W6 land or I'd listen for it.
