Eeek. I was intending to set up some software to monitor IBP beacon
frequencies for 3mins each. 1 band change every 3 minutes, 5 beacons to
get through, call it 2 operations every 15 minutes for each relay
involved, so admittedly "only" 8 operations/hr not 1,800, but that still
gets me 200,000/8 = 25000 hours, that's about 3 years life expectancy,
or admittedly "min" life expectancy...

Better hope I manage something closer to Wayne's "millions of switching
cycles"  :-/
