Larry,
I did not get back to you because of Erich's post. He said
exactly what I tried to convey to you, just in much more detail.
Regardless of operating system used, SatPC 32 behaves much the
same. My question however is: What did you see when you brought
up SatPC32? The world map? Please answer that for me. The way you
fixed your problem was not wrong, by any means. You just done it
the hard way. Good to hear that you are back up. Maybe we can have
a chat about SatPC32 on one of the birds.
Aloha from Hawaii
