Hiya Nick...

Might as well... :)

With the day I've had it's lucky it's just spinning.. :)

OK, I now have ZONE_BLIND 4 in the cfg.  Hopefully this will resolve the
issues.

I'll be doing a test with Andrew Leary tonight... hopefully this will resolve
it.

LOL... I know that now... :)

Thanks Nick...
