[Lowfer] WE2XGR/3 478.500 PSKFEC31 Daytime

[John Andrews]

JD,

The FEC31 has been in all versions for quite a while, so no problem. The 
only solution to the divide by zero error (that has ever worked for me) 
is to reboot the computer, even if it means a hard shut-down. The 
program certainly isn't bulletproof!
