By any chance have you clicked on "Disable Posit Dupe-checks" in the File->Configure->Defaults dialog? Having this feature _enabled_ will at least prevent you from backtracking if repeaters are sending you an old packet that you've already received. Won't solve the entire problem though, but it might help. In other words, make sure the togglebutton is _not_ clicked to enable it. -- Curt, WE7U. archer at eskimo dot com http://www.eskimo.com/~archer Lotto: A tax on people who are bad at math. - unknown Windows: Microsoft's tax on computer illiterates. - WE7U.
