Steve:
Will do the tuning knob thing temporarily to get us back in business, but
can I ask the WA1RTB research department to do some further checking in the
software for changing the display to show memory names more permanently?
I tried finding the option in the edit window, but have had no luck so far.
Have to get onto other things now, and don't want to mess my programming up
by being hasty.
So, if you can give me a step-by-step set of instructions as to how to get
this accomplished in the software, that'd be most appreciated.
I'll expect a bill in the mail someday for all this great service. (grin)

>> Thanks for any help you can provide with this rather un-expected problem.
