Hi,
Yes, the ";" is a slight delay...  However I believe this issue goes
beyond a simple delay...  

As I mentioned in my last post, I have a set of macros, where the last
macro crashes the first macro in the string...  In my mind, that pretty
well eliminates all timing issues...

73's, and thanks,
Dave
