[Packet] pc pakratt 2

[Paul Cavnar]

Hi Jonathan -

Mine done the same thing sometimes.  Ray has a good point though
and I'd recommend a 'hard' boot pull the battery, power the unit down
for a minute or so and start over.  I also discovered that if you have a
bit low voltage, <12.5v sometimes it does strange things too.

I also don't recommend the PC Pakratt software as it is rather
cumbersome and there a few others that don't present near the
trouble it does available to use.  FWIW....

73, Paul - NN7B
