Melchior and others had requested that once Roy Vegard Ovesen completed his revision of the kap140 files that we merge the power check I had implemented with Roy's file and have all the AC using just one file. Roy and I communicated off-list, implemented and tested this merge and added some realism to the altAlert. I agreed to chase down and test the changes to the AC using the kap140 and do one patch. Once we decide where kap140.nas belongs, I will move it on my system and recheck that all 6 AC work and resubmit the patch.
