Steve:

Well, I may have to re-think things here, in order to avoid a lot of trouble 
and unnecessary headaches.

Organizing memories by frequency really does make a lot of sense too.  We 
have it that way at our county EOC, and more than once, that scheme has 
allowed me to locate repeaters very quickly.

So, when I get some spare time here, I may just drop back and punt, and 
re-organize all of my memories by frequency, so that changes like those i 
need to make will be easier to do in the long run.

Thanks as always for your words of wisdom.  They are much appreciated.
